It requires the Department of Commerce to provide more detailed explanations for its determinations and to establish clear deadlines for completing investigations. Additionally, the bill aims to strengthen enforcement mechanisms to ensure that duties are properly collected and that companies are held accountable for violating trade laws. Overall, the Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Modernization Act of 2021 seeks to modernize and streamline the administration of antidumping and countervailing duty laws in order to protect American businesses and promote fair trade practices.
