# 49 U.S.C. § 50102 - Restricting contract awards because of discrimination against United States goods or services
## Text
A person or enterprise domiciled or operating under the laws of a foreign country may not make a contract or subcontract under section 106(k), 44502(a)(2), or 44509, subchapter I of chapter 471, or chapter 481 (except sections 48102(e), 48106, 48107, and 48110) of this title or subtitle B of title IX of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 (Public Law 101508, 104 Stat. 1388353) if the government of that country unfairly maintains, in government procurement, a significant and persistent pattern of discrimination against United States goods or services that results in identifiable harm to United States businesses, that the President identifies under section 305(g)(1)(A) of the Trade Agreements Act of 1979 (19 U.S.C. 2515(g)(1)(A)).
(Pub. L. 103272, § 1(e), July 5, 1994, 108 Stat. 1298, § 49102; renumbered § 50102 and amended Pub. L. 104287, § 5(88)(D), (89), Oct. 11, 1996, 110 Stat. 3398; Pub. L. 11863, title VII, § 768(b)(1), May 16, 2024, 138 Stat. 1294.)
## Notes
Historical and Revision Notes Pub. L. 103272 RevisedSectionSource (U.S. Code)Source (Statutes at Large) 4910249 App.:2226c.Nov. 5, 1990, Pub. L. 101508, § 9131, 104 Stat. 1388372; Oct. 31, 1992, Pub. L. 102581, § 118(b), 106 Stat. 4883. The words “government of that country” are substituted for “that government” for consistency in the revised title and with other titles of the United States Code.
Pub. L. 104287, § 5(89)This makes a clarifying amendment to 49:50101(a) and (b)(3), 50102, 50104(b)(1), and 50105, as redesignated by clause (88)(D) of this section, because 49:47106(d) was struck by section 108(1) of the Federal Aviation Administration Authorization Act of 1994 (Public Law 103305, 108 Stat. 1573).
