                                 An Act


 
To extend the Caribbean Basin Economic Recovery Act, to provide customs 
           support services to Haiti, and for other purposes.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
    This Act may be cited as the ``Haiti Economic Lift Program Act of 
2010''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
    Congress finds the following:
        (1) On January 12, 2010, Haiti was hit by a 7.0 magnitude 
    earthquake, the worst earthquake to affect Haiti in recorded 
    history. Aftershocks from the earthquake, measuring up to 6.0 on 
    the Richter scale, continued for days afterwards.
        (2) The earthquake has devastated Haiti's infrastructure, 
    including homes, offices, factories, roads, ports, communications, 
    and other facilities. The loss of life attributable to the 
    earthquake was massive.
        (3) Even before the earthquake, Haiti was the poorest country 
    in the Western Hemisphere, ranking 149 out of 182 countries 
    according to the United Nation's Human Development Index.
        (4) In recent years, however, the Government and people of 
    Haiti had taken important steps forward to promote economic growth 
    and development, including making strides towards establishing a 
    competitive apparel sector.
        (5) United States trade preference programs, including the 
    Caribbean Basin Economic Recovery Act (as amended by the United 
    States-Caribbean Basin Trade Partnership Act, the Haitian 
    Hemispheric Opportunity through Partnership Encouragement Act of 
    2006, and the Haitian Hemispheric Opportunity through Partnership 
    Encouragement Act of 2008), which extend duty-free tariff treatment 
    to certain apparel produced in Haiti, have made an important 
    contribution to Haiti's economic development efforts.
        (6) However, the Haitian apparel sector has been hard hit by 
    the January 12, 2010, earthquake. A number of apparel factories 
    based in and around Port-au-Prince have been heavily damaged, 
    including the collapse of one major apparel factory that had 
    employed nearly 4,000 workers.
        (7) The Port-au-Prince seaport that had served the apparel 
    trade has been badly damaged. And extensive damage to roads has 
    made it difficult to transport apparel to the Dominican Republic 
    for shipment from ports in that country.
        (8) According to estimates by the Department of Commerce, 
    imports of apparel articles from Haiti to the United States in 2010 
    have decreased by 43 percent as compared to the same period in 
    2009.
        (9) The earthquake has increased significantly the costs and 
    uncertainty of doing business in Haiti. A strong and unequivocal 
    commitment from the United States is needed to help Haiti offset 
    these costs and preserve the gains made under United States trade 
    preference programs, and to encourage buyers and investors to stand 
    with Haiti through this crisis.
SEC. 3. EXTENSION OF CARIBBEAN BASIN ECONOMIC RECOVERY ACT.

                    (II) in subclause (IV)(dd), by striking ``September 
                30, 2010'' and inserting ``September 30, 2020''; and

                (ii) in clause (iv)(II), by striking ``8'' and 
            inserting ``18''; and
