 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

Expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that: (1) it should be U.S. policy to seek in trade negotiations the adoption and enforcement of equivalent environmental standards among the trading nations of the world; (2) until such policy is implemented, the President should seek, through the Uruguay Round of trade negotiations, and as part of the next round of trade negotiations under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, agreement on mechanisms under which the United States and its trading partners can eliminate or reduce competitive disadvantages resulting from the differing national environmental standards; and (3) any agreement regarding such international environmental standards would not impair the implementation of the Clean Air Act or other U.S. environmental protection law.
