WASHINGTON, D.C – The National Council of Textile Organizations has welcomed the introduction of a bill in the US that would eliminate the ‘de minimis’ exemptions for import-sensitive products, including the majority of textile and apparel imports.
The ‘Fighting for America’ bill has been introduced by a bipartisan group of senators as part of a legislative programme to protect domestic industry by limiting the flow of millions of low value, duty-free shipments entering the US on a daily basis.
