The Security Industry Association, as a member of The Safe Battery/Products Transportation Coalition which represents companies and associations of companies that manufacture, use, and transport lithium cells and batteries and products containing them, has advocated for the enactment of H.R. 4, as reported from the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, without amendment to Section 509.

In a letter on April 11 to Chairman Kevin Brady and Ranking Member Richard Neal of the House Ways & Means Committee, the Security Industry Association joined a long list of other organizations representing U.S. manufacturers, farmers and agribusinesses, retailers, technology companies, importers, exporters, and supply chain stakeholders, expressed “deep concern with potential impact of the Administration’s decision to use tariffs to address China’s unfair trade practices and its trade and investment relationship with the United States.”
