President could extend normal trade relations

This bill would let the President decide that Title IV of the Trade Act of 1974 no longer applies to a country. The President could then proclaim nondiscriminatory treatment, called normal trade relations (NTR), for that country's products.

U.S. importers, exporters, and consumers could see lower trade barriers and possible price or supply effects.
