We are introducing the Manifest Modernization Act of 2025 to update the Tariff Act of 1930, aiming to enhance transparency by requiring public disclosure of specific information on vehicle and aircraft manifests arriving in the U.S. This initiative seeks to promote accountability and provide the public with greater insights into the source and movement of goods entering our country.

A little sunlight on cargo details can't hurt – let's see if this actually floats or sinks once implemented.

Sounds like just another step towards hackers grabbing even more info – thanks, but no thanks!

In theory, more information is power, but I'm reserving judgment to see if this helps the average citizen.
