Adjusting Imports of Polysilicon and Its Derivatives Into the United States
This proclamation imposes minimum import prices (MIPs) and a 15% ad valorem tariff on polysilicon and downstream derivatives (ingots, wafers, solar cells, modules) effective December 4, 2026, to protect U.S. production capacity for semiconductor and solar supply chains. It also establishes an onshoring incentive program with construction deadlines by January 20, 2029, and includes differentiated tariff treatment for certain trading partners including the UK (10% rate) and EU/Japan/Korea/Taiwan/Switzerland/Liechtenstein (capped at 15% combined with Column 1 duties).
To Facilitate Positive Adjustment to Competition From Imports of Quartz Surface Products
This proclamation imposes a four-year safeguard tariff-rate quota on imports of quartz surface products (QSP) under Section 202 of the Trade Act of 1974, effective August 15, 2026. The measure excludes imports from numerous free trade agreement partners including Canada, Mexico, Australia, Korea, and others, while applying to imports from China and other non-exempt countries, with provisions for monitoring import surges and circumvention.
Imposing Additional Duties To Offset Canadian Discrimination Against the Commerce of the United States With Respect to Alcoholic Beverages
This proclamation imposes an additional 50 percent ad valorem duty on certain Canadian products, effective August 19, 2026, using Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930. The action is framed as retaliation for Canadian provincial and territorial bans on U.S. alcoholic beverages that began in March 2025, which caused U.S. alcohol exports to Canada to drop approximately 81 percent.
Imposing Additional Duties To Offset Canadian Discrimination Against the Commerce of the United States With Respect to Dairy
This proclamation imposes an additional 50 percent ad valorem duty on certain Canadian products, effective August 19, 2026, to offset Canada's discriminatory dairy tariff-rate quota allocation measures under USMCA that favor EU cheese exporters over U.S. exporters. The action uses Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930 after finding that Canada unreasonably restricts U.S. retailers from accessing USMCA dairy TRQs while allowing EU retailers access under CETA.
Imposing Additional Duties To Offset Canadian Discrimination Against the Commerce of the United States With Respect to Motor Vehicles
This proclamation imposes an additional 50 percent ad valorem duty on certain Canadian products, effective August 19, 2026, to offset Canada's discriminatory tariff scheme against U.S. motor vehicles. The action uses Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930 to retaliate against Canadian tariffs and tariff-rate quotas that apply only to U.S. auto exports, which have allegedly caused a 22 percent drop in U.S. vehicle exports to Canada.
Further Adjusting the Tariff Regimes for Imports of Aluminum, Steel, and Copper Into the United States
This proclamation modifies existing Section 232 tariffs on aluminum, steel, and copper by expanding the 15% reduced tariff rate to agricultural equipment and certain residential HVAC systems, temporarily modifying tariffs on mobile industrial equipment and machinery, adding aluminum lithographic plates and steel racks to tariff coverage, and lowering the domestic content threshold for preferential treatment from 95% to 85%. The changes take effect June 8, 2026, with a temporary rate structure lasting through December 31, 2027, before reverting to Proclamation 11021 rates on January 1, 2028.
To Implement Certain Provisions in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026, and for Other Purposes
This proclamation implements trade-preference extensions and modifications passed in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026. It extends AGOA duty-free treatment and related apparel programs through December 31, 2026; reinstates Gabon as an AGOA beneficiary country effective January 1, 2026; extends Haiti preferential tariff treatment under CBERA through December 31, 2026; and makes technical corrections to the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
Imposing Sanctions on Those Responsible for Repression in Cuba and for Threats to United States National Security and Foreign Policy
This executive order expands sanctions against Cuba by blocking property of foreign persons operating in key Cuban sectors (energy, defense, metals/mining, financial services, security), Cuban government officials, and their adult family members. It also suspends U.S. entry for designated persons and authorizes secondary sanctions on foreign financial institutions that facilitate transactions for blocked parties, building upon the national emergency declared in EO 14380.
Imposing a Temporary Import Surcharge To Address Fundamental International Payments Problems
President Trump imposes a temporary 10 percent ad valorem import surcharge on nearly all goods entering the United States for 150 days, effective February 24, 2026, citing fundamental international payments problems including large balance-of-payments deficits. The proclamation includes extensive exceptions for critical minerals, energy products, pharmaceuticals, vehicles, electronics, agricultural products, and goods from Canada, Mexico, and CAFTA-DR countries, while empowering USTR to monitor conditions and recommend modifications.
Ending Certain Tariff Actions
This executive order terminates the additional ad valorem duties imposed under IEEPA across nine prior executive orders targeting Canada, Mexico, China, Venezuela, Brazil, Russia, Cuba, and Iran. The national emergencies underlying those orders remain in effect, and other duties (Section 232, Section 301) are unaffected. Agency heads must stop collecting these duties as soon as practicable.
Ensuring Affordable Beef for the American Consumer
This proclamation temporarily increases the U.S. beef tariff-rate quota by 80,000 metric tons for calendar year 2026, specifically for lean beef trimmings used in ground beef. The entire additional quota is allocated to Argentina and administered in four 20,000 mt quarterly tranches beginning February 13, 2026, to address high domestic beef prices caused by drought, wildfires, and restricted cattle imports from Mexico.
Addressing Threats to the United States by the Government of Iran
This executive order imposes a new secondary tariff mechanism allowing the U.S. to levy additional ad valorem duties (potentially 25%) on imports from any foreign country that directly or indirectly purchases goods or services from Iran. The order creates a multi-step process where the Secretary of Commerce identifies countries trading with Iran, then the Secretary of State recommends tariff rates, with final presidential determination.
Addressing Threats to the United States by the Government of Cuba
This executive order declares a national emergency regarding Cuba's alignment with U.S. adversaries and establishes a tariff mechanism allowing additional ad valorem duties on imports from any foreign country that directly or indirectly sells or provides oil to Cuba. The order tasks the Secretaries of Commerce and State with determining which countries trigger the tariff and recommending duty rates to the President.
Safeguarding Venezuelan Oil Revenue for the Good of the American and Venezuelan People
This executive order declares a national emergency under IEEPA to block judicial attachment or other legal process against Venezuelan government oil revenue held in U.S. Treasury accounts. It designates these funds as sovereign property held in U.S. custody for diplomatic and governmental purposes, shielding them from creditor claims while giving the Secretary of State control over their ultimate disposition.
Taking Steps To End Cashless Bail To Protect Americans
This executive order directs the Attorney General to identify state and local jurisdictions with cashless bail policies for certain crimes, and requires federal agencies to find federal funds flowing to those jurisdictions that may be suspended or terminated. It does not itself cut any funds but sets up a conditional funding review process targeting jurisdictions that have eliminated cash bail for public-safety-threatening offenses.
Restoring Gold Standard Science
This executive order mandates federal agencies adopt 'Gold Standard Science' principles—reproducibility, transparency, uncertainty acknowledgment, and unbiased peer review—in all scientific activities. It requires public data disclosure for influential scientific information, revokes Biden-era scientific integrity policies and organizational changes from January 2021, and installs senior appointees to enforce compliance, with broad exemptions for national security matters at agency discretion.
Strengthening Probationary Periods in the Federal Service
This executive order overhauls federal employee probationary and trial periods by requiring agencies to affirmatively certify that new hires advance the public interest before their appointments become permanent. It replaces existing civil service regulations with a new Civil Service Rule XI that makes employment automatic termination the default if agencies fail to act, and mandates specific review timelines for current probationary employees.
