Table of Contents
The House of Representatives passed the “Protecting American Industry and Labor from International Trade Crimes Act of 2024” and sent it to the Senate. The Senate received the bill, read it twice, and referred it to the Committee on the Judiciary.
Why it matters: This action is administrative. It signals that the House has finished its work on the bill and that the Senate will now determine if it can pass. Until the Senate passes its own version and the President signs it, nothing in this bill is legally binding.
