About — United States Trade Representative
The United States Trade Representative (USTR) is a Cabinet‑level official who leads the nation’s trade policy, negotiates international agreements, and enforces trade laws. The office shapes economic relations, influencing tariffs, market access, and intellectual‑property rules worldwide. For example, the USTR spearheaded the US‑Mexico‑Canada Agreement, replacing NAFTA in 2020.
