The National Trade Estimates report is an annual wish list of other countries’ laws, policies and practices that corporations want labeled as “trade barriers,” in hopes that the U.S. government will turn their elimination into policy goals.
Like our trade agreements, however, this seek-and-destroy list of so-called trade-barriers is largely not about trade. Instead, legitimate public interest policies, from environmental protections to consumer health regulations, are targeted for elimination.
But with major shifts happening in the U.S. around the future of trade policy, there is reason for hope: according to a recent statement from Public Citizen, this year’s report may “be the last NTE that targets access to medicines, food safety, and digital trade policies as trade barriers.”
