The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) will lead the IPEF’s pillar on Fair and Resilient Trade, and the Department of Commerce will lead the IPEF’s pillars on: (1) Supply Chain Resiliency; (2) Clean Energy, Decarbonization, and Infrastructure; and (3) Taxation and Anti-Corruption. Accordingly, USTR is seeking public comments on matters relevant to the Fair and Resilient Trade pillar, including U.S. interests and priorities, in order to develop U.S. negotiating objectives and positions and identify potential partners.

Negotiating an agreement under the Fair and Resilient Trade pillar is an important step towards strengthening U.S. economic engagement in the Indo-Pacific region and promoting durable, broad-based economic growth. Under the Fair and Resilient Trade pillar, the Administration aims to develop highstandard, worker-centered commitments in the following areas: • Labor • Environment and climate • Digital economy • Agriculture • Transparency and good regulatory practices • Competition policy • Trade facilitation The United States will build upon high-standard trade commitments and develop new approaches in trade policy to advance a broad set of workercentered priorities, and promote durable, broad-based economic growth. At this time, the Administration is not seeking to address tariff barriers. II. Public Comment The Trade Policy Staff Committee (TPSC) invites interested parties to submit comments to assist USTR as it develops negotiating objectives and positions for the IPEF trade pillar. In particular, the TPSC invites interested parties to comment on issues that USTR should address in the negotiations, including the following: 1. General negotiating objectives for the proposed agreement. 2. Labor-related matters. 3. Environment and climate-related matters. 4. Digital economy-related matters. 5. Agriculture-related matters. 6. Transparency and good regulatory practice issues. 7. Competition-related matters. 8. Customs and trade facilitation issues. 9. Issues of particular relevance to small and medium-sized businesses that should be addressed in the negotiations. 10. Other measures or practices, including those of third-country entities, which undermine fair market opportunities for U.S. workers, farmers, ranchers, and businesses. USTR requests small businesses (generally defined by the Small Business Administration as firms with fewer than 500 employees) or PO 00000 Frm 00103 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 13789 organizations representing small business members that submit comments to self-identify as such, so that USTR is aware of issues of particular interest to small businesses.
