The bill would stop the President from using the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose tariffs on baby care products like diapers, wipes, diaper cream, and baby bathtubs. Any such tariffs already in place would have to end, and the President could not use another legal authority to impose substantially similar tariffs instead.
Parents and caregivers of infants, companies that import or sell baby hygiene products, and government agencies that set and collect tariffs would be affected.
Blocking these tariffs would remove one source of potential price increases on imported baby care items, since import tariffs are often passed on to consumers. The bill does not affect tariffs on these products imposed under other, unrelated authorities.
