Bush Signs H.R. 6111

President Bush signed H.R. 6111 (a.k.a. The Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006) today. Included in this bill are several sections relating to trade law. Among these is a tax break for some labor and capital investments in Africa. There are also sections applicable to trade with Haiti, Peru, Columbia, Ecuador and Bolivia. Vietnam is also granted permanent normal trade relations, so lets here it for them.

Head on over to International Trade Law News for more details, and if you would like to read the actual text you can do so here. But be warned, it is a big file.
