Bill overview
The Defending Domestic Produce Production Act of 2019 aims to protect industries that produce raw agricultural products in seasonal cycles. It modifies existing trade laws to provide a streamlined process for these ‘core seasonal industries’ to petition for relief from antidumping and countervailing duties. Specifically, the bill clarifies definitions, improves how industry support is determined, and allows for temporary suspensions of investigations when extraordinary circumstances arise, particularly for industries focused on seasonal production.
