Chamber Backs Expansion of ITA Product Coverage

On June 13, the U.S. Chamber submitted comments to the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative on possible negotiations in the World Trade Organization (WTO) to expand the Information Technology Agreement (ITA), and whether the United States should undertake such negotiations. In its submission, the U.S. Chamber strongly supported launching a new tariff-reduction initiative to expand product coverage of the ITA. While the information and communications technology sector has exploded with new and improved products since the ITA came into force, the product scope of the agreement has never been expanded. The U.S. Chamber believes an expansion of the ITA is an important step in the right direction.
