      "title": "Section 301 of The Trade Act of 1974, As Amended: Its Operation and Issues Involving its Use by the United States",
      "summary": "Sections 301 through 309 of the Trade Act of 1974 (as amended), commonly referred to as\n Section\n301 , are one of the principal means by which the United States seeks to address \"unfair\"\nforeign\nbarriers to U.S. exports and enforce U.S. rights under trade agreements. U.S. membership in the\nWorld Trade Organization (WTO) has raised congressional concern over the ability of the United\nStates to effectively use its trade laws to combat unfair foreign trade practices. This report describes\nthe Section 301 process (including the related Special 301 and Super 301 processes) and examines\nquestions that arise from its use. This report will be updated periodically to reflect administrative\naction and congressional legislation on Section 301.",
