A Biden Administration report to Congress this week establishes US trade promotion priorities and a coordinated, whole-of-government approach to help American companies and workers compete in global markets and grow through international trade. The so-called National Export Strategy (NES) highlights government programs and resources to assist US businesses – including small and medium enterprises (SMEs), historically underrepresented businesses, and those new to exporting – to overcome barriers to trade and sell their goods and services globally.

“The Biden-Harris Administration’s generational investments in US industry, innovation, workforce training, and place-based economic development are setting the stage for inclusive economic growth and boosting US competitiveness on the global stage,” said Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo.

“We are releasing the 2023 National Export Strategy amidst these historic investments, which outlines how we align the full force of the federal government to help US businesses and workers compete and win in international markets – including small businesses exporting for the first time,” said Raimondo.

The 2023 NES was released during the Biden-Harris Administration’s inaugural meeting of the President’s Export Council (PEC), a body that serves as the major national advisory committee on international trade. The PEC is comprised of more than two dozen leaders from the private sector, labor, and academia who provide recommendations to the President on policies and programs that affect US trade performance. It is a decidedly awakened approach in stark contrast to the job losing export killing trade war polices of the previous Administration that voters dumped four years ago.

The 2023 NES contains export promotion actions and activities to increase and enhance market opportunities in several sectors, such as:

• Climate and clean technologies.
• Manufacturing
• Travel and tourism
• International education
• Global infrastructure development
• Agriculture, fish and forestry
• Seafood industries

The 2023 NES was developed by the Trade Promotion Coordination Committee (TPCC), an interagency group housed within the US Department of Commerce’s International Trade Administration established, exists to provide a unifying framework to coordinate the export promotion and export financing activities of the US government.
