 CHAPTER 2--SPECIAL CLASSIFICATION RELATING TO PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND 
                                TESTING

     SEC. 1411. SHORT TITLE.

       This chapter may be cited as the ``Product Development and 
     Testing Act of 2000''.

     SEC. 1412. FINDINGS; PURPOSE.

       (a) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
       (1)(A) A substantial amount of development and testing 
     occurs in the United States incident to the introduction and 
     manufacture of new products for both domestic consumption and 
     export overseas.
       (B) Testing also occurs with respect to merchandise that 
     has already been introduced into commerce to insure that it 
     continues to meet specifications and performs as designed.
       (2) The development and testing that occurs in the United 
     States incident to the introduction and manufacture of new 
     products, and with respect to products which have already 
     been introduced into commerce, represents a significant 
     industrial activity employing highly-skilled workers in the 
     United States.
       (3)(A) Under the current laws affecting the importation of 
     merchandise, such as the provisions of part I of title IV of 
     the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1401 et seq.), goods 
     commonly referred to as ``prototypes'', used for product 
     development testing and product evaluation purposes, are 
     subject to customs duty upon their importation into the 
     United States unless the prototypes qualify for duty-free 
     treatment under special trade programs or unless the 
     prototypes are entered under a temporary importation bond.
       (B) In addition, the United States Customs Service has 
     determined that the value of prototypes is to be included in 
     the value of production articles if the prototypes are the 
     result of the same design and development effort as the 
     articles.
       (4)(A) Assessing duty on prototypes twice, once when the 
     prototypes are imported and a second time thereafter as part 
     of the cost of imported production merchandise, discourages 
     development and testing in the United States, and thus 
     encourages development and testing to occur overseas, since, 
     in that case, duty will only be assessed once, upon the 
     importation of production merchandise.

[[Page 16189]]

       (B) Assessing duty on these prototypes twice unnecessarily 
     inflates the cost to businesses, thus reducing their 
     competitiveness.
       (5) Current methods for avoiding the excessive assessment 
     of customs duties on the importation of prototypes, including 
     the use of temporary importation entries and obtaining 
     drawback, are unwieldy, ineffective, and difficult for both 
     importers and the United States Customs Service to 
     administer.
       (b) Purpose.--The purpose of this chapter is to promote 
     product development and testing in the United States by 
     permitting the importation of prototypes on a duty-free 
     basis.

      SEC. 1413. AMENDMENTS TO HARMONIZED TARIFF SCHEDULE OF THE 
                   UNITED STATES.

       (a) Heading.--Subchapter XVII of Chapter 98 is amended by 
     inserting in numerical sequence the following new heading:

                           used exclusively                                               in the absence of
                           for development,                                               this heading
                           testing, product                                                                   ''
                           evaluation or                                                                       .
                           quality control
                           purposes..........

       (b) U.S. Note.--The U.S. Notes to subchapter XVII of 
     chapter 98 are amended by adding at the end the following:
       ``6. The following provisions apply to heading 9817.85.01:
       ``(a) The term `prototypes' means originals or models of 
     articles that--
       ``(i) are either in the preproduction, production, or 
     postproduction stage and are to be used exclusively for 
     development, testing, product evaluation, or quality control 
     purposes; and
       ``(ii) in the case of originals or models of articles that 
     are either in the production or postproduction stage, are 
     associated with a design change from current production 
     (including a refinement, advancement, improvement, 
     development, or quality control in either the product itself 
     or the means for producing the product).
       For purposes of clause (i), automobile racing shall not be 
     considered to be ``development, testing, product evaluation, 
     or quality control.''.
       ``(b)(i) Prototypes (as defined in paragraph (a)) may only 
     be imported in limited noncommercial quantities in accordance 
     with industry practice.
       ``(ii) Prototypes (as defined in paragraph (a)), or parts 
     of prototypes, may not be sold (including sale for scrap 
     purposes) after importation into the United States or be 
     incorporated into other products.
       ``(c) Articles subject to quantitative restrictions, 
     antidumping orders, or countervailing duty orders, may not be 
     classified as prototypes under this note. Articles subject to 
     licensing requirements, or which must comply with laws, 
     rules, or regulations administered by agencies other than the 
     United States Customs Service before being imported, may be 
     classified as prototypes, provided that they comply with all 
     applicable provisions of law and otherwise meet the 
     definition of `prototypes' under paragraph (a).''.

      SEC. 1414. ENTRY PROCEDURES.

       The Secretary of the Treasury shall establish regulations 
     for the identification of prototypes at the time of 
     importation into the United States in accordance with the 
     provisions of this chapter and the amendments made by this 
     chapter.

     SEC. 1415. EFFECTIVE DATE.

       This chapter, and the amendments made by this chapter, 
     shall apply with respect to--
       (1) an entry of a prototype under heading 9817.85.01, as 
     added by section 1413(a), on or after the date of the 
     enactment of this Act; and
       (2) an entry of a prototype (as defined in U.S. Note 6(a) 
     to subchapter XVII of chapter 98, as added by section 
     1413(b)) under heading 9813.00.30 for which liquidation has 
     not become final as of the date of enactment of this Act.

CHAPTER 3--PROHIBITION ON IMPORTATION OF PRODUCTS MADE WITH DOG OR CAT 
                                  FUR

     SEC. 1421. SHORT TITLE.

       This chapter may be cited as the ``Dog and Cat Protection 
     Act of 2000''.

     SEC. 1422. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

       (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
       (1) An estimated 2,000,000 dogs and cats are slaughtered 
     and sold annually as part of the international fur trade. 
     Internationally, dog and cat fur is used in a wide variety of 
     products, including fur coats and jackets, fur trimmed 
     garments, hats, gloves, decorative accessories, stuffed 
     animals, and other toys.
       (2) The United States represents one of the largest markets 
     for the sale of fur and fur products in the world. Market 
     demand for fur products in the United States has led to the 
     introduction of dog and cat fur products into United States 
     commerce, frequently based on deceptive or fraudulent 
     labeling of the products to disguise the true origin of the 
     fur.
       (3) Dog and cat fur, when dyed, is not easily 
     distinguishable to persons who are not experts from other 
     furs such as fox, rabbit, coyote, wolf, and mink, and 
     synthetic materials made to resemble real fur. Dog and cat 
     fur is generally less expensive than other types of fur and 
     may be used as a substitute for more expensive types of furs, 
     which provides an incentive to engage in unfair or fraudulent 
     trade practices in the importation, exportation, 
     distribution, or sale of fur products, including deceptive 
     labeling and other practices designed to disguise the true 
     contents or origin of the product.
       (4) Forensic texts have documented that dog and cat fur 
     products are being imported into the United States subject to 
     deceptive labels or other practices designed to conceal the 
     use of dog or cat fur in the production of wearing apparel, 
     toys, and other products.
       (5) Publicly available evidence reflects ongoing 
     significant use of dogs and cats bred expressly for their fur 
     by foreign fur producers for manufacture into wearing 
     apparel, toys, and other products that have been introduced 
     into United States commerce. The evidence indicates that 
     foreign fur producers also rely on the use of stray dogs and 
     cats and stolen pets for the manufacture of fur products 
     destined for the world and United States markets.
       (6) The methods of housing, transporting, and slaughtering 
     dogs and cats for fur production are generally unregulated 
     and inhumane.
       (7) The trade of dog and cat fur products is ethically and 
     aesthetically abhorrent to United States citizens. Consumers 
     in the United States have a right to know if products offered 
     for sale contain dog or cat fur and to ensure that they are 
     not unwitting participants in this gruesome trade.
       (8) Persons who engage in the sale of dog or cat fur 
     products, including the fraudulent trade practices identified 
     above, gain an unfair competitive advantage over persons who 
     engage in legitimate trade in apparel, toys, and other 
     products, and derive an unfair benefit from consumers who buy 
     their products.
       (9) The imposition of a ban on the sale, manufacture, offer 
     for sale, transportation, and distribution of dog and cat fur 
     products, regardless of their source, is consistent with the 
     international obligations of the United States as it applies 
     equally to domestic and foreign entities. Such a ban is also 
     consistent with provisions of international agreements to 
     which the United States is a party that expressly allow for 
     measures designed to protect the health and welfare of 
     animals and to enjoin the use of deceptive trade practices in 
     international or domestic commerce.
       (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this chapter are to--
       (1) prohibit imports, exports, sale, manufacture, offer for 
     sale, transportation, and distribution in the United States 
     of dog and cat fur products, in order to ensure that United 
     States market demand does not provide an incentive to 
     slaughter dogs or cats for their fur;
       (2) require accurate labeling of fur species so that 
     consumers in the United States can make informed choices and 
     ensure that they are not unwitting contributors to this 
     gruesome trade; and
       (3) ensure that the customs laws of the United States are 
     not undermined by illicit international traffic in dog and 
     cat fur products.

     SEC. 1423. PROHIBITION ON IMPORTATION OF PRODUCTS MADE WITH 
                   DOG OR CAT FUR.

       Title III of the Tariff Act of 1930 is amended by inserting 
     after section 307 the following new section:

       ``(c) Penalties and Enforcement.--
       ``(1) Civil penalties.--Any person who violates any 
     provision of this section or any regulation issued under this 
     section may, in addition to any other civil or criminal

     any other provision of law, be assessed a civil penalty by 
     the Secretary of not more than $5,000.
       ``(2) Enforcement.--The provisions of this section and any

     could be eliminated, or deferred and consolidated into 
     periodic reports such as the import activity summary 
     statement.
       (2) The identity of data and factors necessary to determine 
     whether physical inspections should be conducted.
       (3) The cost of data collection.
       (4) Potential alternative sources and methodologies for 
     collecting data, taking into account the costs and other 
     consequences to importers, exporters, carriers, and the 
     Government of choosing alternative sources.
       (5) Recommended changes to the law, regulations of any 
     agency, or other measures that would improve the efficiency 
     of procedures and systems of the United States Government for 
     regulating international trade, without compromising the 
     effectiveness of procedures and systems required by law.

     15th day after the date of enactment of this Act.

                    TITLE II--OTHER TRADE PROVISIONS

     SEC. 2001. TRADE ADJUSTMENT ASSISTANCE FOR CERTAIN WORKERS 
                   AFFECTED BY ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION OR 
                   CLOSURE OF A COPPER MINING FACILITY.

       (a) Certification of Eligibility for Workers Required for 
     Closure of Facility.--
       (1) In general.--Notwithstanding any other provision of law 
     or any decision by the Secretary of Labor denying 
     certification or eligibility for certification for adjustment 
     assistance under title II of the Trade Act of 1974, a 
     qualified worker described in paragraph (2) shall be 
     certified by the Secretary as eligible to apply for 
     adjustment assistance under such title II.
       (2) Qualified worker.--For purposes of this subsection, a 
     ``qualified worker'' means a worker who--
       (A) was determined to be covered under Trade Adjustment 
     Assistance Certification TA-W-31,402; and
       (B) was necessary for the environmental remediation or 
     closure of a copper mining facility.
       (b) Effective Date.--The amendment made by this section 
     shall take effect on the date of enactment of this Act.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from 
Illinois (Mr. Crane) and the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Levin) each 
will control 20 minutes.
  The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Crane).


                             General Leave

  Mr. CRANE. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members may 
have 5 legislative days within which to revise and extend their remarks 
and include extraneous material on H.R. 4868.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from Illinois?
  There was no objection.
  Mr. CRANE. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  Mr. Speaker, H.R. 4868 would make miscellaneous and other technical 
and clerical corrections to the trade laws. The Committee on Ways and 
Means favorably reported the bill on July 19, 2000.
  This bill contains over 155 provisions temporarily suspending or 
reducing duties on a wide variety of chemicals, including drugs used in 
the battle against HIV/AIDS and anticancer drugs, environmentally 
friendly herbicides and insecticides, and many organic dyes.
  In each instance, there is either no domestic production of the 
product involved or the domestic producer supported the measure.
  By suspending or reducing these duties, we can enable U.S. companies 
that use these products to be more competitive and cost efficient. This 
would help create jobs for American workers as well as reduce costs for 
consumers.
  Also, the bill includes two other important provisions which I 
introduced earlier in this Congress. The first provision would reduce 
the duty rate, returning travellers pay to an amount more in line with 
the average duty rate of imported commercial merchandise. My second 
provision would provide duty free treatment to participants and 
individuals associated with all international athletic events held in 
the United States.
  The bill also contains a ban on the import of products made from dog 
and cat fur and provisions that would help simplify customs entry 
processing.
  This package of trade bills has been thoroughly evaluated and 
commented on by all concerned parties, including the U.S. Customs 
Service, the International Trade Commission, the United States Trade 
Representative, and firms which may be affected by tariff suspension on 
a product they produced domestically. The suspensions and duty 
reductions that remain on the bill are completely noncontroversial.
  Mr. Speaker, I include for the Record the following exchange of 
letters:

                                      Committee on Ways and Means,


                                     House of Representatives,

                                    Washington, DC, July 18, 2000.
     Hon. Tom Bliley,
     Chairman, Committee on Commerce, House of Representatives, 
         Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. Chairman: Thank you for your letter regarding your 
     Committee's jurisdictional interest in H.R. 4868, the 
     ``Miscellaneous Trade and Technical Corrections Act of 
     2000.''
       I acknowledge your Committee's jurisdiction over this 
     legislation and appreciate your cooperation in moving the 
     bill to the House floor expeditiously. I agree that your 
     decision to forego further action on the bill will not 
     prejudice the Commerce Committee with respect to its 
     jurisdictional prerogatives on this or similar legislation, 
     and will support your request for conferees on those 
     provisions within the Committee on Commerce's jurisdiction 
     should they be the subject of a House-Senate conference. I 
     will also include a copy of your letter and this response in 
     our report on the legislation and as part of the 
     Congressional Record when the legislation is considered by 
     the House.
       Thank you again for your cooperation.
           Sincerely,
                                                      Bill Archer,
     Chairman.
                                  ____

                                         House of Representatives,


                                        Committee on Commerce,

                                    Washington, DC, July 18, 2000.
     Hon. Bill Archer,
     Chairman, Committee on Ways and Means, Washington, DC.
       Dear Bill: I am writing regarding H.R. 4868, the 
     Miscellaneous Trade and Technical Corrections Act of 2000. As 
     you know, section 1423 of this legislation prohibits the 
     importation and other commerce in products containing dog and 
     cat fur. The Committee on Commerce has jurisdiction over this 
     provision pursuant to its authority over interstate and 
     foreign commerce generally pursuant to clause I of Rule X of 
     the Rules of the House of Representatives.
       However, in light of your desire to have the House consider 
     this legislation expeditiously, I will not exercise the 
     Committee on Commerce's right to act on the legislation. By 
     agreeing to waive its consideration of the bill, however, the 
     Commerce Committee does not waive its jurisdiction over this 
     bill. In addition, the Commerce Committee reserves its 
     authority to seek conferees on any provisions of the bill 
     that are within the jurisdiction during any House-Senate 
     conference that may be convened on this or similar 
     legislation. I ask that you support our request in this 
     regard.
  I ask that you include a copy of this letter and your response in 
your committee's report on the legislation and the Record during 
consideration of the bill on the House floor. I remain,
           Sincerely,
                                                       Tom Bliley,
                                                         Chairman.

  Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
  Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of H.R. 4868. This bill reflects a 
bipartisan effort. It reflects the input of individual Members as well 
as the administration. The rule of thumb in putting this bill together, 
as in the past, was the provisions should be noncontroversial and carry 
a minimal cost. That rule was followed here.
  As the title suggests, the provisions in this bill are of a technical 
nature, but these technical changes can have a real concrete impact on 
U.S. businesses, farmers, workers, and consumers.
  For example, the bill suspends or reduces import duties on over 150 
items. This improves the competitiveness of domestic manufacturing by 
reducing the price of inputs. It also provides a benefit to consumers 
by reducing the price of goods not produced in commercial quantities in 
the U.S., including anti-HIV/AIDS drugs.
  The bill also includes an important provision to encourage product 
development and testing in the United States. It makes the importation 
of prototypes for development, testing, product evaluation, or quality 
control purposes duty free.
  Currently, the value of such prototypes is effectively taxed twice, 
once when the prototype was imported for testing and again as part of 
the value of the finished product. This bill would eliminate that 
double dip which discourages testing and development of products in our 
country.
  The bill also includes important provisions to streamline import 
processing. This will alleviate some of the administrative burden that 
can delay the shipment of goods from port to consumer.
  Finally, I would like to mention that, thanks to the hard work of the 
able gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. Kleczka), my friend and colleague, 
the bill contains a prohibition on importation of goods made from dog 
or cat fur.

[[Page 16193]]

This is a significant provision that serves a humane consumer 
protection purpose, and we are very pleased to be in support of it.
  I urge my colleagues to support passage of this bill.
  Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
  Mr. CRANE. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2\1/2\ minutes to the distinguished 
gentleman from Florida (Mr. Shaw), a member of the committee.
  Mr. SHAW. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman from Illinois for 
yielding me this time.
  Mr. Speaker, this bill, a portion of this bill, requires that the 
Commissioner of Customs enter into a fee-for-service agreement to 
provide international air cargo customs service at the Fort Lauderdale-
Hollywood International Airport.
  Because of the difficulties that the airport has experienced in 
establishing the fee-for-service arrangements, the airport recently 
lost significant international air cargo business at its facility.
  The provision of cargo clearance, inspection and other Customs 
services is a fundamental governmental function.
  Once Customs cargo inspection services have been provided under a 
fee-for-service agreement for 2 years, and the Airport has established 
air cargo business of at least 29,000 commercial consumption entries a 
year, the Commissioner will provide Customs services to the Airport 
without requiring additional fees for those services.

                              {time}  1945

  This will merely put the Ft. Lauderdale-Hollywood International 
Airport on the same basis as other airports of similar size where such 
Customs services are already available.
  Another portion of this bill, which I was pleased to sponsor, 
provides for customs fees on arrival of ferries. The Consolidated 
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 precluded Customs from 
charging customs user fees for passengers on ferry boats. This has 
prevented Customs from issuing landing rights to ferries arriving in 
South Florida and its coastal region.
  To correct this situation, COBRA is amended to permit the collection 
of customs user fees to enable Customs to issue landing rights to 
ferries operating in South Florida. Ferries will now be able to operate 
between the United States and other Caribbean countries, provided they 
are within 300 miles of the United States. This will help promote 
tourism and trade.
  Another area which I am hopeful will become a part of this bill 
before it is finally enacted into law was a provision I was working on 
with the gentleman from New York (Mr. Rangel), and that is the question 
of prohibiting the sale of gray market cigarettes. These are cigarettes 
that are produced in the United States for export into other countries 
but somehow find their way back into this country.
  The presence of these cigarettes is going to cost my own State of 
Florida about $100 million a year, and it is time we act on this and 
stop the reimportation of these cigarettes that are produced for the 
foreign market.
  Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from 
Wisconsin (Mr. Kleczka).
  Mr. KLECZKA. Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong support of this bill, and 
I would like to acknowledge my friend, the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. 
Crane), and also the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Levin) for agreeing 
to include in this bill a ban on the importation, exporting and 
interstate commerce of items of clothing or toys, children's toys, made 
from dog and cat fur.
  The issue was brought to my attention by the Humane Society of the 
United States, who, for over 18 months, conducted an undercover 
investigation of not only the conditions of animals but the slaughter 
of these animals, and then finally the products that were made from the 
animal fur and shipped into this country. They handed their 
investigation and the results of their investigation over to the 
Dateline NBC program, which about a year and a half ago broadcast a 
long segment on the clothing that is being sold here in this country 
and the toys being sold to our children made from dog and cat fur.
  After working with Senator Roth in the other body, we did introduce 
legislation in both Houses to ban this practice. This legislation, I am 
happy to say, includes that ban.
  Mr. Speaker, here in this country, in the United States, over 65 
million households have pets, either cats or dogs; and clearly I find 
it and they find it very deplorable that the clothing they might buy at 
their local store or the toy they might buy for their children is made 
in another country from the hide of a domestic dog or a domestic cat. 
This bill, as I indicated, will ban this abhorrent practice.
  Again, I want to thank not only the chairman and ranking member, but 
I also want to publicly acknowledge the hard work of the Humane Society 
of the United States, which worked tirelessly to bring this to a halt, 
and I think tonight's action on this bill and subsequent Senate action 
will do just that.
  Mr. CRANE. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from 
Arizona (Mr. Hayworth).
  Mr. HAYWORTH. Mr. Speaker, far from the roar of the grease paint and 
the smell of the crowd when we enter a political season where we 
accentuate our differences, it is very easy to lose track of those 
areas where the real work of government occurs. Such is the case with 
this bill, H.R. 4868, the Miscellaneous Trade and Technical Corrections 
Act of 2000.
  I am pleased to rise and speak in favor of this legislation because 
it will temporarily suspend the duty on dozens of items that are not 
produced in the United States and consequently have to be imported. 
They include drugs, as the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Levin), the 
ranking member of the Subcommittee on Trade, mentioned, drugs used in 
the fight against HIV-AIDS and environmentally friendly herbicides and 
insecticides.
  Mr. Speaker, I would be remiss if I did not mention now and thank the 
chairman of the Subcommittee on Trade, the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. 
Crane), for including in the package several bills I introduced to 
suspend the duty on certain chemicals, chemicals vital to American 
industry and to our quality of life. Let me also commend the 
subcommittee chairman, Mr. Speaker, for including legislation 
introduced by our colleague, the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Collins), 
legislation of which I am a cosponsor, that reduces the duty on steam 
generators, as we work on an energy policy for our Nation.
  All of these provisions further the sound trade policy the chairman 
always tries to pursue because these products are not manufactured 
anywhere in the United States and, consequently, it makes no sense to 
tax their importation.
  This is an excellent package of noncontroversial items. It offers the 
best examples of what we can do working together, and we rise not in 
partisanship but in progress with this legislation. Accordingly, Mr. 
Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support it.
  Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from 
Michigan (Mr. Stupak).
  Mr. STUPAK. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding me this 
time, and I rise today to support this bill and to thank the leadership 
of the Committee on Ways and Means, both Democrats and Republicans, for 
inserting my provision in H.R. 4868 that extends Trade Adjustment 
Assistance to former copper mine employees in White Pine, Michigan.
  White Pine is located in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, a region famous 
for its vast quantities of copper and timber. In 1995, the Copper Range 
Company in White Pine extracted its last pieces of copper. The 
Department of Labor concluded that increased copper imports from Canada 
resulted from NAFTA were directly responsible for the mine's demise.
  The ensuing mine closure left many of its employees with an uncertain 
future as they contemplated career changes or leaving the area. While 
some former employees chose to leave the area in search of new jobs, 
others sought Trade Adjustment Assistance for worker retraining. Almost 
89 percent of the Copper Range employees

[[Page 16194]]

were laid off in September of 1995. I led the fight to make sure that 
they were all deemed eligible for TAA benefits by the Department of 
Labor.
  Meanwhile, the company retained fewer than 20 employees for an 
environmental remediation of the mine. This work will be finished next 
year. Unfortunately, the employees who stayed behind to help clean up 
the mining site have been deprived of TAA benefits. They were denied by 
the Department of Labor because they did not perform a job that 
supported the production of copper.
  However, under TAA standards, all employees of a company which closed 
because of NAFTA are eligible for Trade Adjustment Assistance, whether 
they are security guards, secretaries or, in this case, miners. It only 
makes sense that the employees providing environmental remediation at 
Copper Range should receive the same TAA benefits that their coworkers 
received in 1995.
  This legislation, with the help of members of the Committee on Ways 
and Means, will correct this oversight. The passage of this legislation 
ensures that these employees, with assistance under TAA, will find 
future employment. The passage of this legislation ensures that all 
employees will continue to provide for their families while they 
explore their employment opportunities.
  It is only fair to provide these workers with access to the TAA 
benefits they rightfully deserve, and I urge my colleagues to support 
this legislation.
  After we pass this legislation, I know there is companion legislation 
in the other body, so, hopefully, we can correct this and pass this 
legislation this year to help all these employees and to provide the 
other benefits found in H.R. 4868. I urge my colleagues to support the 
bill.
  Mr. CRANE. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from 
Pennsylvania (Mr. English).
  Mr. ENGLISH. Mr. Speaker, I rise to salute the chairman and members 
of the Ways and Means Subcommittee on Trade and to rise in strong 
support of H.R. 4868, the Miscellaneous Trade and Technical Corrections 
Act.
  This is good legislation which represents an important piece of 
housekeeping in our national trade policy. It is legislation which 
includes numerous noncontroversial trade provisions. This legislation 
provides for temporary duty suspensions on a variety of products, 
including environmentally friendly herbicides and fungicides.
  Frequently, Mr. Speaker, Congress needs to make technical changes to 
our trade laws to suspend or reduce tariffs on certain products or 
chemicals which are not produced domestically. This process is done 
through the voluntary submission of requests to the Subcommittee on 
Trade by the administration, by Members of Congress, and by the public, 
which is then vetted through a public comment period. The subcommittee 
has done excellent due diligence in producing this product. Should any 
opposition arise regarding a specific trade provision, they set it 
aside; and they have presented here a consensus piece of work.
  In some cases, American companies and farmers clearly need products 
or chemicals which are not produced in the United States. Under those 
circumstances, it does not make sense for us to apply tariffs in those 
situations. Since these products are not manufactured in the U.S., and 
their sale will not harm any domestic industry, it is neither necessary 
nor desirable to maintain these tariffs on such goods. A temporary duty 
suspension makes products more competitive and helps reduce costs for 
the farmers and the consumers who utilize these product or chemicals.
  I urge my colleagues to support this miscellaneous trade bill. We 
think that this is an important addition to our trade policy, and our 
hope is that this Chamber will embrace this legislation and send it 
forward.
  Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 4 minutes to the gentleman from Ohio 
(Mr. Kucinich), a very active Member of this House.
  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding me this 
time, and I want to begin by thanking the chairman, the gentleman from 
Illinois (Mr. Crane), and the ranking member, the gentleman from 
Michigan (Mr. Levin), for their leadership on this in the Ways and 
Means Subcommittee on Trade.
  I would like to bring to the attention of my colleagues an important 
provision in the Miscellaneous Trade and Technical Corrections Act, 
which prohibits the importation of products made with dog and cat fur 
into the United States. This provision is from H.R. 1622, the Dog and 
Cat Protection Act, a bill which has broad bipartisan support and 93 
cosponsors.
  A local television station, Channel 8 in my district, in Cleveland, 
Ohio, recently aired an investigation on the dog and cat fur industry. 
After that program aired, people called me in tears, in tears, to think 
that dogs and cats, God's creatures, defenseless animals that we love, 
could be treated with such cruelty, killed for their fur. My 
constituents were outraged that this practice was allowed to occur and 
deluged the station with over 3,000 phone calls expressing their shock, 
and asking what could be done to end this horrible trade.
  Since the airing of the program, my office has received over 700 
calls, letters, and e-mail messages from constituents who are very 
concerned about the mistreatment of dogs and cats and who support a 
prohibition on the importation of products made from dog and cat fur.
  Mr. Speaker, I would like to commend Dick Goddard, Channel 8's 
respected weatherman, and the entire Channel 8 news team for their work 
in bringing awareness of this cruelty to the people of northeast Ohio. 
I want to thank also the Humane Society of the United States, which 
conducted an 18-month investigation which uncovered the international 
trade and products made from dog and cat fur. They discovered that dog 
and cat fur products are in widespread use overseas in a variety of 
garments, including coats, hats, and gloves and animal figurines. It 
was even discovered that one of the largest clothing retailers in the 
United States was unknowingly selling products made with dog fur.
  When dog and cat fur is dyed, it is nearly impossible to distinguish 
it from other fur species. Fur companies purposely mislead consumers by 
not labeling or mislabeling their products. The only accurate way to 
determine fur species is through DNA testing.

                              {time}  2000

  An estimated 2 million dogs and cats are killed each year for their 
fur as part of an international fur trade. The animals are kept in 
deplorable conditions and are brutally killed by a number of inhumane 
methods, including clubbing and skinning alive.
  Now, Americans love their pets. I remember our own family dogs, 
Spotty and Daisy, who gave us so much joy. And I know why Americans 
feel so strongly about animals. I also know that over 65 million 
households have a dog or a cat and many people consider their pets to 
be members of the family.
  Americans deserve to be protected from unknowingly participating in 
this gruesome practice. I fully support this ban. I believe we must 
work to provide humane treatment for all animals. I urge my colleagues 
to support strong legislation to protect American consumers from 
unknowingly supporting an industry that involves the brutal slaughter 
of dogs and cats.
  When I first heard about this, Mr. Speaker, I told the people of 
Cleveland that Congress would respond. Congress has responded. I want 
to say that again. When I first heard about this and the TV station 
received thousands of calls and my office received hundreds of calls, I 
told the people to have confidence that Congress would respond.
  The gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Crane) and the gentleman from 
Michigan (Mr. Levin) have answered that with a ringing support for the 
concerns of the people. I thank them on behalf of all the people in my 
district and also on behalf of all pet lovers in this country.
  Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Texas 
(Mr. Gonzalez).

[[Page 16195]]


  Mr. GONZALEZ. Mr. Speaker, today H.R. 4868 will, in part, designate 
San Antonio's International Airport as a point of entry.
  Later today in this Chamber we will congratulate Mexico on its recent 
democratic elections, making this airport designation a timely one due 
to the City of San Antonio's close cultural and business relationship 
with Mexico.
  This airport designation is important to my city so that it can 
further develop its business ties with Mexico that have already 
expanded since the approval of NAFTA.
  However, significant barriers exist for the private aircraft operator 
that result in extra time and cost due to interim stops that must be 
made for Customs processing before coming to San Antonio.
  Both business and trade leaders have indicated that business will be 
helped if San Antonio could receive noncommercial aircraft from Mexico 
on short notice. Several of San Antonio's large corporations have 
expanded business trade with Mexico and fly private aircraft into 
Mexico on a regular basis.
  Finally, San Antonio is well equipped to handle a point-of-entry 
flight, as U.S. Customs has a significant presence at the San Antonio 
International Airport.
  In closing, I want to express special thanks to all members of the 
Committee on Ways and Means for making this a reality for San Antonio 
and their assistance.
  Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the distinguished 
gentleman from West Virginia (Mr. Wise) my colleague and classmate.
  Mr. WISE. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding me the 
time.
  Mr. Speaker, I thank the members of the majority and minority on the 
Committee on Ways and Means for bringing this bill to the floor.
  In a lot of times in the sweeping debates on major trade policy a 
bill will pass, and then it is necessary to go back and realize there 
were certain situations that were not dealt with or perhaps the law of 
unintended consequences took effect. That is what this bill is about.
  I just want to say that there are provisions in this bill that are 
important to working men and women across our country, certainly in my 
State of West Virginia. I am very grateful to the chairman and ranking 
member of the Committee on Ways and Means for putting this bill 
together, for bringing it to the floor, and for recognizing sometimes 
the law of unintended consequences and working to make our working men 
and women much more competitive.
  So I think this is an important bill. I rise strongly in support and 
urge its adoption tonight.
  Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mr. CRANE. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues, in conclusion, please, as we can 
see clearly, this is a bill that is noncontroversial. We enjoy good, 
strong bipartisan support. I ask all my colleagues to get on board and 
vote for H.R. 4868.
  Mr. MANZULLO. Mr. Speaker, last March, I introduced a miscellaneous 
tariff correction bill (H.R. 3715) to help keep the remaining cathode 
ray tube and computer display screen manufacturers in the United 
States. After careful review by the Administration and the Ways and 
Means Committee, this bill was changed to provide a 3-year duty 
suspension on monochrome glass envelopes. Also, my office has been 
given assurances that the permanent removal of the tariff on monochrome 
glass envelopes will be an item of discussion during the next round of 
global trade talks.
  Monochrome glass envelopes are used to make cathode ray tubes that 
provide the ``light'' behind the computer monitor. When the tariff on 
monochrome glass envelopes was first proposed, there were American 
manufacturers of this product. But over the last few years, the final 
American manufacturer of monochrome glass envelopes decided to get out 
of the business. Thus, the tariff duty designed to provide a modest 
level of protection for U.S. makers of monochrome glass envelopes no 
longer serves its purpose. In fact, the import duty is now hurting the 
international competitiveness of U.S. cathode ray tube and computer 
display screen manufacturers.
  Other foreign competitors are able to purchase monochrome glass 
envelopes without this tariff. Thus, they are able to price their 
computer monitors in the U.S. more competitively than U.S. 
manufacturers of equivalent product. Mr. Speaker, there should not be a 
U.S.-government imposed incentive for Americans to buy foreign computer 
display screens! That's why I ask my colleagues to support the 
Miscellaneous Trade and Technical Corrections Act of 2000 because 
section 1247 of this legislation waives the import tariff on monochrome 
glass envelopes for three years. We need to remove the import tariff on 
monochrome glass envelopes so that American manufacturers of cathode 
ray tubes and computer monitors can compete on a more equal footing 
with their foreign counterparts.
  Finally, I want to thank the chairman of the Ways and Means Trade 
Subcommittee, Mr. Crane, the ranking minority member, Mr. Levin, and 
the staff of the subcommittee for all the hard work that went into 
including the 3-year duty suspension of monochrome glass envelopes in 
H.R. 4868.
  Mr. CRANE. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Hutchinson). The question is on the 
motion offered by the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Crane) that the 
House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 4868, as amended.
  The question was taken.
  Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays.
  The yeas and nays were ordered.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 8 of rule XX and the 
Chair's prior announcement, further proceedings on this motion will be 
postponed.

                          ____________________
