WASHINGTON – This week, the Office of the United States Trade Representative invited public comment on foreign barriers to U.S. exports of goods and services and U.S. foreign direct investment for inclusion in the 2027 National Trade Estimate Report.

“On his first day back in office, President Trump instituted an America First Trade Policy to reverse decades of foreign trade practices that disadvantaged American workers and businesses,” said Ambassador Greer. “Over the last year and a half, President Trump has used tariffs and trade deals to secure lasting wins for American workers and their families, eliminating foreign trade barriers while raising American workers’ wages and reinforcing our domestic supply chains. The Trump Administration remains focused on identifying and removing foreign trade barriers to strengthen the domestic and global competitiveness of American farmers, workers, and manufacturers.”

The deadline for submission of comments is October 29, 2026.
