Request for Comments to Assist in Reviewing and Identifying Unfair Trade Practices and Initiating All Necessary Actions to Investigate Harm From Non-Reciprocal Trade Arrangements

This document and comments section was posted on 2/24/25. It is focused on seeking reason to impose tariffs not really arguments as to why tariff's should not be imposed on a certain segment of consumer goods but I suppose this is a chance to voice your opinion in writing directly with the USTR about tariff's related to specific countries like China. One commenter from the bicycle business brought up de minimis reform which would seem to be an appropriate comment for this request. Specifically the request seeks: "...comments from the public, on a country-by-country basis, to assist the U.S. Trade Representative in reviewing and identifying any unfair trade practices by other countries, and in initiating all necessary actions to investigate the harm to the United States from any non-reciprocal trade arrangements. This information will assist the U.S. Trade Representative in recommending appropriate actions to remedy such practices and reporting to the President proposed remedies in pursuit of reciprocal trade relations. For additional information, please see USTR’s Federal Register notice."
