**Ending normal trade relations (NTR) with the People's Republic of China.** This bill would withdraw NTR treatment for PRC products 90 days after enactment and make the tariff rates in column 2 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule apply to all PRC goods, while letting the President proclaim duties higher than those rates. - Workers and U.S. manufacturers: Seeks to defend the U.S. industrial base and cites about 5.0 million manufacturing jobs and 90,000 factories lost from 1994 through April 2025. - Importers and consumers: Would impose column 2 duties on all PRC products and permit higher presidential duties, changing tariff costs for businesses that import from the PRC and for buyers of those goods. - Scope and targets: Defines the PRC to include the PRC government plus the Hong Kong and Macau special administrative region governments and their agencies, so the tariff changes cover those territories. - Rationale and trade framing: Grounds the change in national and economic security under Article XXI of GATT 1994 and cites cited figures such as about $130 billion in estimated tariff evasion in 2023 and $180–$540 billion in annual intellectual property–related losses.
