S.4563

Section 232 Public Transparency Act

Introduced·5/19/26

Section 232 Public Transparency Act mandates timely publication of national security investigation reports on imports.

The Section 232 Public Transparency Act amends the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 to establish a deadline for the publication of information from reports on investigations into imports that may impair national security. Specifically, the Secretary must publish any non-classified, non-proprietary information within 270 days of initiating an investigation or upon submitting the report to the President, whichever comes first. This aims to enhance transparency and ensure timely public access to critical national security information.
