This bill establishes a new task force within the Commerce Department to proactively identify unfair trade practices that harm American industries. The task force will research potential foreign government subsidies, product dumping (selling below cost), and ways companies circumvent existing trade penalties, then recommend investigations when warranted. The task force will monitor trade data, price trends, and foreign company practices while consulting with U.S. industries, other federal agencies, and the International Trade Commission to spot problems early. The bill specifically prioritizes cases affecting small and medium-sized American businesses. The legislation does not specify dedicated funding or implementation timelines, instead placing this responsibility within existing Commerce Department operations.
