            By Mr. GALLAGHER:
        H.R. 940.
        Congress has the power to enact this legislation pursuant 
     to the following:
       Article 1 Section 8 clearly grants Congress the authority 
     ``To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations''--not the 
     President. This bill reclaims delegated Congressional 
     authority over Section 232 tariffs.
