It is essential to create a level playing field for U.S. companies and workers by stopping unfair foreign trade and investment practices and unfair imports. This should involve strong and effective enforcement of U.S. trade and investment agreements – including World Trade Organization agreements – and U.S. trade laws and trade-related regulations, consistent with U.S. statutory requirements and international trade obligations.

A successful enforcement strategy depends on the United States having strong trade agreements to enforce. This means strengthening and modernizing existing U.S. trade agreements and aggressively pursuing new U.S. trade deals.

Such enforcement efforts provide an important opportunity to hold our trading partners accountable to strong trade rules. These efforts are also critical to opening international markets, halting unfair foreign trade and investment practices and unfair imports and addressing emerging economic and technological developments vital to U.S. innovation and competitiveness across all sectors of the economy.
