Last year Congress approved three pending free trade agreements (FTAs) with Colombia, Panama, and South Korea with large bipartisan majorities.  This year making progress in the the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) negotiations and legislation to upgrade the terms of U.S. trade relations with Russia will be front and center for Congress and the Obama administration. Also on the table are the U.S.-EU High-Level Working Group on Jobs and Growth, the National Export Initiative (NEI), and possibly new sectoral or plurilateral trade proposals addressing services, trade facilitation and information technology products.  This distinguished panel will offer important perspectives on managing the opportunities ahead.
