Trade
Plan of Action
Pass legislation to limit presidential trade authority putting the power squarely with Congress where it constitutionally belongs.
Properly evaluate our trade deficit and develop a smart strategy. Begin by understanding that trade is not a scorecard!
Hold China responsible for distorting markets. Redesign the WTO to better handle complaints about unfair competition.
Reiterate our commitment to the WTO. Help modernize it regarding digital trade, intellectual property, and dispute resolutions.
Reengage in what was the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), now the Comprehensive and Progressive Trans-Pacific Partnership.
Reengage in – and complete – transparent negotiations for the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP).
Reiterate our commitment to our North American trading partners and the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA-DR).
Address currency manipulation through trade agreements.
Support the Export-Import Bank as an independent, self-sustaining federal agency.
