To authorize the extension of nondiscriminatory treatment (normal trade relations treatment) to products of certain countries.

This bill lets the President decide that a trade law called the Jackson-Vanik amendment doesn't have to apply to most countries, except Belarus, Cuba, and North Korea. The Jackson-Vanik amendment currently blocks normal trade relationships with some countries unless they meet certain requirements about letting people leave their country freely. The bill also allows the President to give permanent normal trade status to these covered countries.
