PARTS:
“Many American workers depend on trade for their jobs, and trade helps countless American businesses grow and thrive. Lots of statistics support these facts – for instance, one in six manufacturing jobs depends on trade, and 97 percent of U.S. exporters are small- to medium-sized businesses – but USTR wants to hear directly from the real people behind the trade data: the workers, farmers, ranchers, manufacturers, and service providers who make our economy go and grow.
Tell us how your life is affected by global trade – what it means for your job, your business, or your community. We’ll appreciate your input as we work to craft a trade policy that works for America ’s working families.
The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) is an agency of more than 200 committed professionals with decades of specialized experience in trade issues and regions of the world.
We negotiate directly with foreign governments to create trade agreements, to resolve disputes, and to participate in global trade policy organizations. We also meet with governments, with business groups, with legislators and with public interest groups to gather input on trade issues and to discuss the President’s trade policy positions”
