Pink Tariffs Study: Assessing Import Duties' Impact on Consumers and Gender

This act mandates a study to evaluate how U.S. import tariffs disproportionately affect consumers, particularly women. It aims to determine if tariffs are higher on mass-market goods compared to luxury items, and if they show a gender bias, potentially increasing daily expenses for households.
Key points
Requires a study to examine if import tariffs are higher on everyday consumer goods than on luxury items, potentially burdening household budgets.
Analyzes whether tariffs are higher on women's clothing compared to men's clothing, impacting purchasing costs for women.
The study will also assess the tariff burden on different household types (e.g., single-parent, double-parent families) and income levels to understand who is most affected.
