The proposal would authorize the federal government to take action against China's shipbuilding practices that U.S. officials view as unfair, such as government subsidies that artificially lower prices for Chinese shipbuilders. This could include imposing tariffs, trade restrictions, or other penalties to protect American shipbuilding companies and workers from what supporters see as unfair competition. The measure affects American shipyard workers, domestic shipping companies, and consumers who buy ships or shipping services.
