SENATE BILL: Support Our Steelworkers Act of 2020 (Passed)

[YE]

This protects goods manufactured (and thus keep tries to their jobs in the Rust Belt rather than sweatshops) in Atlasia as listed and regulated in Chapter 72 and 73 of the tariff schedule (so iron and steel) but not sure if it's in the best interest to give the president such power at least in game (though IRL I didn't like it when the GOP tried the roll back trump's power on the issue of tariffs).

[YE]

By comparison, the average US tariff rate is 2 percent. That is somewhat lower than what is in most developed countries and even lower than what it was even most of the time post-1947.

The United States currently has a trade-weighted average import tariff rate of 2.0 percent on industrial goods. One-half of all industrial goods entering the United States enter duty free.

It does have some pretty decent safeguards in the current bill compared to rl, though. What would be the in game concern?

That in general I’m not always the biggest fan of a strong executive in general.
