## Summary

**A tariff exclusion process for key homebuilding materials** would let U.S. entities request that higher duties be waived on products used to build homes, aiming to lower construction costs and expand housing supply. The bill defines which products qualify, who may apply, and the rules for fast, transparent decisions. - Builders and homebuyers would get cheaper access to products used in single- and multi-family homes because U.S. entities and associations can seek exclusions for covered articles. - Domestic manufacturers and suppliers would be reviewed on production capacity, import dependency, and lead times since exclusions are granted when an item is a defined "critical homebuilding product" or when domestic supply is insufficient. The authority to grant exclusions ends October 1, 2029. - Administration and oversight would tighten. The Secretary must decide requests in 15 days for critical products and 60 days for others, Customs must publish decisions online, and agencies must accept retroactive liquidation requests and send quarterly reports to the Senate Finance Committee and the House Ways and Means Committee.
