The US House of Representatives has voted to reinstate tariffs on solar panels May 15,2023.
The U.S. House of Representatives voted Friday to overturn President Joe Biden's decision to suspend tariffs on solar panels from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam. Those countries account for most of the U.S. solar panel supply.
The House passed the resolution 221-202, with 12 Democrats joining most Republicans in voting for it.
House members who support reinstating the solar panel tariffs argue that the United States is too dependent on other countries for clean energy and should implement trade laws that support the U.S. domestic solar supply chain.
Biden vowed to veto the resolution
The resolution will also be subject to a vote in the Senate. President Biden has vowed to veto the resolution if it passes the Senate.
Notably, a presidential veto can be overridden only by a two-thirds vote in the Senate.

Last June, the White House announced a two-year tariff exemption for solar panels from the four Southeast Asian countries and cited the National Defense Production Act to support domestic solar panel manufacturing.
Solar energy is a key step toward meeting the White House's climate goals, and suspending the tariffs could help spur widespread adoption of solar energy in the United States.
The Biden administration has unveiled plans for solar to supply nearly half of the nation's electricity by 2050 as part of its broader goal of achieving zero emissions from the grid by 2035 and a zero-carbon energy system by mid-century.
