Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) is a tie-limited authority that Congress uses to establish trade negotiating objectives, notification, and consultation requirements, and procedures to consider implementing legislation for certain reciprocal trade agreements, provided that they meet certain statutory requirements. TPA is sometimes referred to as “fast track” authority. This presentation will discuss its history, purpose and usage, particularly over the last 8 or so years. And it will include a discussion and Q&A on issues that have arisen in the debate over TPA renewal.
