Requires more public details about cargo arriving in the U.S. by vehicle and aircraft
This bill would make more information public about goods arriving in the United States by vehicles and aircraft. It would require details like cargo classification codes and the last country cargo traveled through to be shared. This means the public would have more insight into what's being imported and how it gets here.
Today, manifest information for vehicles and aircraft is less consistently available to the public, and the Tariff Act of 1930 lacks a clear definition for 'aircraft.' If this bill passes, all vessels, vehicles, and aircraft arriving in the U.S. would explicitly need manifests. The public would also gain access to more detailed cargo information, including specific classification codes and the last country cargo traveled through.
