To suspend temporarily the duty on certain synthetic basketballs.
Summary

If enacted, the bill would have suspended these costs through December 31, 2009, by amending the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States. For everyday citizens, this measure was intended to lower the costs for businesses importing these goods, which can lead to more competitive pricing for consumers at the retail level.
