Congressional Affairs
The Office of Congressional Affairs also oversees all Congressional correspondence. When a Congressional letter or request for information is received by the USTR, it is entered into our tracking system, and tasked out to the appropriate staff for response. USTR's Correspondence Analyst follows up and works with USTR offices, as appropriate, to ensure items are responded to in a timely manner.
Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement
The Office of Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement (IAPE) leads USTR's public outreach efforts to state and local governments, both small and large business and agricultural communities, and labor, environmental and consumer groups.
Press Office
The Office of Public and Media Affairs provides timely and accurate information about the latest activities and public statements from the Office of the United States Trade Representative. In the press center you'll find press releases, fact sheets, and reports and publications on U.S. trade policy and activities at USTR, as well as photos, video, and blogs.
