Summary of Bill HR 1891
Bill 114 hr 1891, also known as the "African Growth and Opportunity Act Extension Act," aims to extend several important trade programs, including the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA), the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP), and the preferential duty treatment program for Haiti.
The African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) was first enacted in 2000 and provides eligible sub-Saharan African countries with duty-free access to the US market for certain goods. This program has been instrumental in promoting economic growth and development in the region.
The Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) is a program that allows certain developing countries to export goods to the US duty-free. This program helps to promote economic development in these countries by providing them with access to the US market. The preferential duty treatment program for Haiti was established in response to the devastating earthquake that struck the country in 2010. This program allows certain Haitian goods to enter the US market duty-free, helping to support the country's recovery and economic development. Overall, Bill 114 hr 1891 seeks to extend these important trade programs in order to continue supporting economic growth and development in Africa, Haiti, and other developing countries. By providing duty-free access to the US market, these programs help to create jobs, boost exports, and improve living standards in these regions.
