House roll calls join only on matching Congress, legislation type, and number. Senate roll calls join only on matching source-supplied document type and number, not question text. Committee and related-measure relationships have no date in their relationship records and therefore are counted above but never placed on the chronology.

CRS summary
Axing Nonmarket Tariff Evasion Act or the ANTE ActThis bill authorizes the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) to investigate and take remedial action against covered entities that evade or attempt to evade duties (i.e., tariffs) that were imposed on nonmarket economy countries (e.g., China) by investing in other countries.Under the bill, a covered entity (e.g., business) (1) is owned, controlled, subject to the jurisdiction or direction of, or operated by a nonmarket economy country; and (2) includes an entity for which, on any date during the most recent 12-month period, at least 25% of the equity interests in such entity were held directly or indirectly by one or more entities organized under the laws of a nonmarket economy country.Currently, Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 allows the USTR to impose tariffs in response to actions by foreign countries that violate U.S. rights under international trade agreements or that burden or restrict U.S. commerce in unjustifiable, unreasonable, or discriminatory ways. In 2018, for example, the USTR used Section 301 to impose tariffs on many imports from China.This bill allows the USTR to investigate whether a covered entity is establishing or has established investments (e.g., manufacturing operations) in another country that is not subject to Section 301 tariffs in order to evade those tariffs. Upon an affirmative determination, the USTR may impose certain remedial measures, such as imposing a tariff equivalent to the original tariff on goods associated with the nonmarket economy country.
