- USTR Supply Chain Resilience Initiatives
On March 7th, USTR published a Federal Register Notice seeking input to “inform the development of trade and investment policy initiatives that promote supply chain resilience.” In its notice, USTR described its view of what constitutes a resilient supply chain: one that “provide[s] a range of sourcing options; adopt[s], rebound[s], and recover[s] with agility following shocks; uphold[s] labor rights and environmental protections; and strengthen[s] the U.S. manufacturing base and workforce.”
USTR indicated that to achieve these policy objectives, it is seeking “information on developing sector-specific policy tools, strengthening domestic manufacturing and services, collaborating with like-minded trading partners and allies, and measuring resilience, among other topics.”
