119th (2025–2027)
S. 4418
This bill prohibits tariffs on phosphate fertilizers imported from Morocco, effective within 7 days of enactment. It eliminates existing countervailing duties on Moroccan phosphate fertilizers that were imposed in 2021, and requires U.S. Customs and Border Protection to refund cash deposits that importers paid under those previous tariff orders within 90 days. The legislation is designed to lower fertilizer costs for American farmers by increasing access to affordable phosphate imports. The bill affects fertilizer importers, farmers who rely on phosphate-based fertilizers, and trade policy between the United States and Morocco, with no specific funding appropriations mentioned in the text.
