TRD — Trade (domestic/foreign)

Engaged with the Department of Commerce on the implementation of FY26 CJS report language: Promoting US Competitiveness in infrastructure.- The agreement directs ITA's Office of Trade Remedy Compliance to enhance ongoing efforts to facilitate the use of U.S. developed construction codes in foreign markets to increase market access for U.S. exporters of construction related goods and services and to counteract the Peoples Republic of China's (PRC) influence. Through the PRC's Belt and Road Initiative, the PRC forces the use of PRC construction standards in recipient countries. PRC standards align with Chinese manufacturing and construction practices that are less rigorous than U.S.-developed construction codes and encourage low-cost over strong-quality construction, creating a "race to the bottom' that disadvantages U.S. industry in affected markets.
