Our Work
As other nations race to achieve their own market-opening trade deals, the United States cannot be left behind. The U.S. Chamber is dedicated to pursuing new trade and investment agreements that uphold and improve our standard of living and our standing in the world. Trade agreements must establish high standards, protect American innovation, and be fully enforceable.

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Thomas J. Donohue, CEO of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Perrin Beatty, President and CEO of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, and Carlos Salazar Lomelín, Chairman of Mexico’s Consejo Coordinador Empresarial (Business Coordinating Council), issued a joint statement today upon the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement’s (USMCA) entry into force:
The Chamber's statement to the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative when negotiating objectives for U.S.-Kenya Trade Agreement.
USMCA has been three years in the making, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce was involved at every step.
The U.S. Senate passed the implementing bill for USMCA, preserving and strengthening our ties with Canada and Mexico.
This Coalition letter was sent to the United States Senate supporting the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).
This Key Vote Alert! letter was sent to the United States Senate, supporting the "United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) Implementation Act."
This Key Vote Alert! letter was sent to the U.S. House of Representatives, supporting H.R. 5430, the "United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) Implementation Act."
This Coalition letter was sent to the U.S. Congress supporting the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).
Chamber sites serious disappointment by the removal of certain intellectual property provisions, including but not limited to the biologics provision. The decision to remove key intellectual property protections was based on the false assumption that these provisions would raise U.S. drug prices. In fact, the original biologics provision would have resulted in more funding for innovative medical research with no additional cost to U.S. consumers. Now, the only beneficiaries will be foreign governments and consumers who will continue to free-ride on the benefits of American research into new cures without contributing to their development.
Expanded export trade under USMCA benefits American farmers and ranchers, who provide our Thanksgiving favorites year over year.
