To extend the temporary suspension of duty on isoxaben.
Summary
H.R. 3238 is a bipartisan proposal that would extend the existing suspension of import taxes, or duties, on a specific chemical compound known as isoxaben through December 31, 2008. Isoxaben is a pre-emergent herbicide widely used by farmers, landscapers, and homeowners to prevent the growth of broadleaf weeds in crops, turf, and ornamental plants. By eliminating these import duties, the bill aims to lower the manufacturing costs for agricultural products, potentially making weed control more affordable for consumers and professional growers.
