                Executive Order 14231 of March 6, 2025

                
Amendment to Duties To Address the Flow of 
                Illicit Drugs Across Our Northern Border

                By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                America, including the International Emergency Economic 
                Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), the National 
                Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), section 604 
                of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (19 U.S.C. 2483), 
                and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, I 
                hereby determine and order:

                Section 1. Background. Automotive production is a major 
                source of United States employment and innovation and 
                is integral to United States economic and national 
                security. The American automotive industry as currently 
                structured often trades substantial volumes of 
                automotive parts and components across our borders in 
                the interest of bringing supply chains closer to North 
                America. In order to minimize disruption to the United 
                States automotive industry and automotive workers, it 
                is appropriate to adjust the tariffs imposed on 
                articles of Canada in Executive Order 14193 of February 
                1, 2025 (Imposing Duties to Address the Flow of Illicit 
                Drugs Across Our Northern Border).

                Sec. 2. Product Coverage. (a) Articles that are entered 
                free of duty as a good of Canada under the terms of 
                general note 11 to the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 
                the United States (HTSUS), including any treatment set 
                forth in subchapter XXIII of chapter 98 and subchapter 
                XXII of chapter 99 of the HTSUS, as related to the 
                Agreement between the United States of America, United 
                Mexican States, and Canada, shall not be subject to the 
                additional ad valorem rate of duty described in section 
                2(a) or section 2(b) of Executive Order 14193.

                    (b) The additional rate of duty on potash that is 
                not subject to subsection (a) of this section shall be 
                reduced to 10 percent in lieu of 25 percent.
                    (c) The modifications set out in this section shall 
                be effective with respect to goods entered for 
                consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for 
                consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern standard 
                time on March 7, 2025.

                Sec. 3. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order 
                shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:

(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department, agency, or the 
head thereof; or

(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget 
relating to budgetary, administrative or legislative proposals.

                    (b) This order shall be implemented consistent with 
                applicable law and subject to the availability of 
                appropriations.

                    (c) This order is not intended to, and does not, 
                create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, 
                enforceable at law or in equity by any party against 
                the United States, its departments, agencies, or 
                entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any 
                other person.

                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    March 6, 2025.
