Congress is moving to end a national emergency that was used to put extra taxes, known as duties, on products coming into the U.S. from Brazil.
This action would cancel an executive order signed by the President in July 2025 that allowed these higher costs on imported goods.
If this becomes law, it could lower the price of items imported from Brazil, such as coffee, orange juice, or steel, which had become more expensive because of the extra taxes.
The resolution aims to return trade with Brazil to normal levels and stop the government from using emergency powers to manage these specific import costs.
