Michigan HR0106 urges the U.S. President and Congress to renew and expand the African Growth and Opportunity Act to include more sub-Saharan African.

Michigan HR0106 is a resolution urging the U.S. President and Congress to renew and expand the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA). AGOA, enacted in 2000, provides duty-free access to the U.S. market for certain products from eligible sub-Saharan African countries. The resolution argues that AGOA has been crucial for U.S. trade and relations with Africa, promoting development and U.S. interests. Expanding AGOA to include more countries could benefit Michigan businesses by encouraging economic reforms and increasing trade.
