 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the Administration should pursue efforts to further liberalize the Japanese market for U.S. beef and encourage the elimination of the quota system; and (2) if a satisfactory solution is not reached with Japan when the current beef agreement expires, the U.S. Trade Representative should pursue appropriate measures in order to liberalize the Japanese beef market.
