The bill, H. 4325, is a House Resolution introduced in the South Carolina General Assembly to urge the President of the United States to eliminate tariffs that are adversely impacting BMW and other vital industries within the state. The resolution highlights BMW's significant investment of over $14.8 billion in Spartanburg since 1992 and its ongoing $1.7 billion expansion to produce electric vehicles and high-voltage batteries. It also notes that BMW is the largest automotive exporter by value from the U.S., with a total export value of approximately $10 billion in 2024, and emphasizes the financial strain the company faces due to tariffs on steel, aluminum, vehicle imports from Mexico, and Chinese electric vehicles.

The resolution calls for the South Carolina House of Representatives to formally express their concerns regarding these tariffs and their detrimental effects on the state's economy and industries. It concludes with a directive to present a copy of the resolution to the President of the United States, reinforcing the urgency of the matter for the state's economic interests.
