Legislative history

The Export Control Reform Act of 2018 (ECRA) authorizes the President to control exports for national security and foreign policy purposes. ECRA is the statutory basis for the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), which are administered by the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) in the Department of Commerce.

The act replaced the Export Administration Act of 1979, which expired in 2001. Between 2001 and 2018, the EAR were maintained using the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.[1] Unlike its predecessors, ECRA does not contain a sunset provision and will remain in effect until amended or repealed.
