Washington, D.C. <\/strong>\u2014 U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff is continuing his work to protect domestic solar manufacturing from unfair trade practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sens. Ossoff and Sherrod Brown (D-OH) launched an inquiry with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) requesting detailed information about how the Biden Administration will enforce provisions designed to prevent importers from evading tariffs by stockpiling solar modules imported during the moratorium that ended on June 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAccording to the White House, your Agency has announced that it will \u2018vigorously enforce\u2019 the anti-stockpiling provision, including by \u2018requiring importers to provide CBP a certification of solar module utilization with detailed information about the modules being deployed.\u2019 We urge that vigorous enforcement in the interest of American energy independence and energy security,\u201d Sens. Ossoff and Brown wrote.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sen. Ossoff continues working to boost domestic solar manufacturing and strengthen American energy independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In April, Sen. Ossoff pressed the Biden Administration<\/a> to end the emergency declared in June 2022 that authorized the U.S. Department of Commerce to waive certain duties on solar products manufactured in China and imported from Southeast Asian countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In March, Sens. Ossoff and Rev. Warnock successfully pressed<\/a> the Biden Administration to eliminate the tariff exemption for bifacial modules under Section 201 of the Trade Act of 1974 to boost the competitive advantage of American bifacial module manufacturers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In February, Sen. Ossoff led a group of Senators pressing the Biden Administration<\/a> to ensure domestic production of wafers and polysilicon is properly incentivized through the Inflation Reduction Act\u2019s bonus tax credit for domestic content, as intended by Congress, to help American solar manufacturing compete with China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In January, Sen. Ossoff successfully led a bipartisan group of Senators<\/a> urging President Biden to increase tariffs on Chinese-made solar module, cell, and wafer imports under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
