USTR Moves to Launch China Trade Board, Seeking Public Comment Shortly
7 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · May 27
Jamieson Greer said the USTR will soon publish a Federal Register notice inviting public comment on a proposed US-side Board of Trade with China.
The notice is the first formal step toward creating a new mechanism to manage US-China economic relations, with Greer saying he personally reviewed and edited the draft.
The move adds structure to a broader USTR push unveiled earlier Tuesday, when Greer also floated reimposing 10% Section 122 tariffs before they expire in July 2026.
That wider effort points to a dual-track China strategy: building a standing trade forum while pursuing fresh tariff authority through an ongoing investigation.
Could legal challenges from 24 states block the President's global tariff plan before its July expiration?
As new tariffs loom, which foreign industries are most exposed to the administration's Section 301 investigations?
Is the U.S. trade deficit a genuine crisis justifying tariffs, or a normal feature of the global economy?
