The practice becomes reprehensible in the eyes of producers in importing countries when unfair trading practices are used. The United States Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act includes export targeting in the category of unreasonable acts, policies and practices. The entries on trade policy are here. As such, they may give grounds for action under Section 301. See also import targets and voluntary import expansion programs.[1]
