            DIVISION B--BIPARTISAN TRADE PROMOTION AUTHORITY

                  TITLE XXI--TRADE PROMOTION AUTHORITY

SEC. 2101. SHORT TITLE AND FINDINGS.

  (a) Short Title.--This title may be cited as the ``Bipartisan 
Trade Promotion Authority Act of 2002''.
  (b) Findings.--The Congress makes the following findings:
          (1) The expansion of international trade is vital to 
        the national security of the United States. Trade is 
        critical to the economic growth and strength of the 
        United States and to its leadership in the world. 
        Stable trading relationships promote security and 
        prosperity. Trade agreements today serve the same 
        purposes that security pacts played during the Cold 
        War, binding nations together through a series of 
        mutual rights and obligations. Leadership by the United 
        States in international trade fosters open markets, 
        democracy, and peace throughout the world.
          (2) The national security of the United States 
        depends on its economic security, which in turn is 
        founded upon a vibrant and growing industrial base. 
        Trade expansion has been the engine of economic growth. 
        Trade agreements maximize opportunities for the 
        critical sectors and building blocks of the economy of 
        the United States, such as information technology, 
        telecommunications and other leading technologies, 
        basic industries, capital equipment, medical equipment, 
        services, agriculture, environmental technology, and 
        intellectual property. Trade will create new 
        opportunities for the United States and preserve the 
        unparalleled strength of the United States in economic, 
        political, and military affairs. The United States, 
        secured by expanding trade and economic opportunities, 
        will meet the challenges of the twenty-first century.
          (3) At the same time, the recent pattern of decisions 
        by dispute settlement panels and the Appellate Body of 
        the World Trade Organization to impose obligations and 
        restrictions on the use of antidumping and 
        countervailing measures by WTO members under the 
        Antidumping Agreement and the Agreement on Subsidies 
        and Countervailing Measures has raised concerns, and 
        Congress is concerned that dispute settlement panels 
        and the Appellate Body of the WTO appropriately apply 
        the standard of review contained in Article 17.6 of the 
        Antidumping Agreement, to provide deference to a 
        permissible interpretation by a WTO member of 
        provisions of the Antidumping Agreement, and to the 
        evaluation by a WTO member of the facts where that 
        evaluation is unbiased and objective and the 
        establishment of the facts is proper.

SEC. 2102. TRADE NEGOTIATING OBJECTIVES.

  (a) Overall Trade Negotiating Objectives.--The overall trade 
negotiating objectives of the United States for agreements 
subject to the provisions of section 2103 are--
          (1) to obtain more open, equitable, and reciprocal 
        market access;
          (2) to obtain the reduction or elimination of 
        barriers and distortions that are directly related to 
        trade and that decrease market opportunities for United 
        States exports or otherwise distort United States 
        trade;
          (3) to further strengthen the system of international 
        trading disciplines and procedures, including dispute 
        settlement;
          (4) to foster economic growth, raise living 
        standards, and promote full employment in the United 
        States and to enhance the global economy;
          (5) to ensure that trade and environmental policies 
        are mutually supportive and to seek to protect and 
        preserve the environment and enhance the international 
        means of doing so, while optimizing the use of the 
        world's resources;
          (6) to promote respect for worker rights and the 
        rights of children consistent with core labor standards 
        of the International Labor Organization (as defined in 
        section 2111(2)) and an understanding of the 
        relationship between trade and worker rights; and
          (7) to seek provisions in trade agreements under 
        which parties to those agreements strive to ensure that 
        they do not weaken or reduce the protections afforded 
        in domestic environmental and labor laws as an 
        encouragement for trade.
  (b) Principal Trade Negotiating Objectives.--
          (1) Trade barriers and distortions.--The principal 
        negotiating objectives of the United States regarding 
        trade barriers and other trade distortions are--
                  (A) to expand competitive market 
                opportunities for United States exports and to 
                obtain fairer and more open conditions of trade 
                by reducing or eliminating tariff and nontariff 
                barriers and policies and practices of foreign 
                governments directly related to trade that 
                decrease market opportunities for United States 
                exports or otherwise distort United States 
                trade; and
                  (B) to obtain reciprocal tariff and nontariff 
                barrier elimination agreements, with particular 
                attention to those tariff categories covered in 
                section 111(b) of the Uruguay Round Agreements 
                Act (19 U.S.C. 3521(b)).
          (2) Trade in services.--The principal negotiating 
        objective of the United States regarding trade in 
        services is to reduce or eliminate barriers to 
        international trade in services, including regulatory 
        and other barriers that deny national treatment and 
        market access or unreasonably restrict the 
        establishment or operations of service suppliers.
          (3) Foreign investment.--The principal negotiating 
        objective of the United States regarding foreign 
        investment is to reduce or eliminate artificial or 
        trade-distorting barriers to trade-related foreign 
        investment and, recognizing that United States law on 
        the whole provides a high level of protection for 
        investment, consistent with or greater than the level 
        required by international law, to secure for investors 
        important rights comparable to those that would be 
        available under United States legal principles and 
        practice, by--
                  (A) reducing or eliminating exceptions to the 
                principle of national treatment;
                  (B) freeing the transfer of funds relating to 
                investments;
                  (C) reducing or eliminating performance 
                requirements, forced technology transfers, and 
                other unreasonable barriers to the 
                establishment and operation of investments;
                  (D) seeking to establish standards for 
                expropriation and compensation for 
                expropriation, consistent with United States 
                legal principles and practice;
                  (E) providing meaningful procedures for 
                resolving investment disputes;
                  (F) seeking to improve mechanisms used to 
                resolve disputes between an investor and a 
                government through--
                          (i) mechanisms to eliminate frivolous 
                        claims; and
                          (ii) procedures to ensure the 
                        efficient selection of arbitrators and 
                        the expeditious disposition of claims;
                  (G) providing an appellate or similar review 
                mechanism to correct manifestly erroneous 
                interpretations of law; and
                  (H) ensuring the fullest measure of 
                transparency in the dispute settlement 
                mechanism, to the extent consistent with the 
                need to protect information that is classified 
                or business confidential, by--
                          (i) ensuring that all requests for 
                        dispute settlement are promptly made 
                        public;
                          (ii) ensuring that--

                                submissions, findings, and

                        acceptance of amicus curiae submissions 
                        from businesses, unions, and

                protection of intellectual property rights, 
                including through--
                          (i)(I) ensuring accelerated and full

                        agreement governing intellectual 
                        property rights that is entered into by

                        through the Internet and other global 
                        communication media, and to prevent the 
                        unauthorized use of their works; and
                          (v) providing strong enforcement of 
                        intellectual property rights, including 
                        through accessible, expeditious, and 
                        effective civil, administrative, and 
                        criminal enforcement mechanisms; and
                  (B) to secure fair, equitable, and 
                nondiscriminatory market access opportunities 
                for United States persons that rely upon 
                intellectual property protection.
          (5) Transparency.--The principal negotiating 
        objective of the United States with respect to 
        transparency is to obtain wider and broader application 
        of the principle of transparency through--
                  (A) increased and more timely public access 
                to information regarding trade issues and the 
                activities of international trade institutions;
                  (B) increased openness at the WTO and other 
                international trade fora by increasing public 
                access to appropriate meetings, proceedings, 
                and submissions, including with regard to 
                dispute settlement and investment; and
                  (C) increased and more timely public access 
                to all notifications and supporting 
                documentation submitted by parties to the WTO.
          (6) Anti-corruption.--The principal negotiating 
        objectives of the United States with respect to the use 
        of money or other things of value to influence acts, 
        decisions, or omissions of foreign governments or 
        officials or to secure any improper advantage in a 
        manner affecting trade are--
                  (A) to obtain high standards and appropriate 
                domestic enforcement mechanisms applicable to 
                persons from all countries participating in the 
                applicable trade agreement that prohibit such 
                attempts to influence acts, decisions, or 
                omissions of foreign governments; and
                  (B) to ensure that such standards do not 
                place United States persons at a competitive 
                disadvantage in international trade.
          (7) Improvement of the wto and multilateral trade 
        agreements.--The principal negotiating objectives of 
        the United States regarding the improvement of the 
        World Trade Organization, the Uruguay Round Agreements, 
        and other multilateral and bilateral trade agreements 
        are--
                  (A) to achieve full implementation and extend 
                the coverage of the World Trade Organization 
                and such agreements to products, sectors, and 
                conditions of trade not adequately covered; and
                  (B) to expand country participation in and 
                enhancement of the Information Technology 
                Agreement and other trade agreements.
          (8) Regulatory practices.--The principal negotiating 
        objectives of the United States regarding the use of 
        government regulation or other practices by foreign 
        governments to provide a competitive advantage to their 
        domestic producers, service providers, or investors and 
        thereby reduce market access for United States goods, 
        services, and investments are--
                  (A) to achieve increased transparency and 
                opportunity for the participation of affected 
                parties in the development of regulations;
                  (B) to require that proposed regulations be 
                based on sound science, cost-benefit analysis, 
                risk assessment, or other objective evidence;
                  (C) to establish consultative mechanisms 
                among parties to trade agreements to promote 
                increased transparency in developing 
                guidelines, rules, regulations, and laws for 
                government procurement and other regulatory 
                regimes; and
                  (D) to achieve the elimination of government 
                measures such as price controls and reference 
                pricing which deny full market access for 
                United States products.
          (9) Electronic commerce.--The principal negotiating 
        objectives of the United States with respect to 
        electronic commerce are--
                  (A) to ensure that current obligations, 
                rules, disciplines, and commitments under the 
                World Trade Organization apply to electronic 
                commerce;
                  (B) to ensure that--
                          (i) electronically delivered goods 
                        and services receive no less favorable 
                        treatment under trade rules and 
                        commitments than like products 
                        delivered in physical form; and
                          (ii) the classification of such goods 
                        and services ensures the most liberal 
                        trade treatment possible;
                  (C) to ensure that governments refrain from 
                implementing trade-related measures that impede 
                electronic commerce;
                  (D) where legitimate policy objectives 
                require domestic regulations that affect 
                electronic commerce, to obtain commitments that 
                any such regulations are the least restrictive 
                on trade, nondiscriminatory, and transparent, 
                and promote an open market environment; and
                  (E) to extend the moratorium of the World 
                Trade Organization on duties on electronic 
                transmissions.
          (10) Reciprocal trade in agriculture.--(A) The 
        principal negotiating objective of the United States 
        with respect to agriculture is to obtain competitive 
        opportunities for United States exports of agricultural 
        commodities in foreign markets substantially equivalent 
        to the competitive opportunities afforded foreign 
        exports in United States markets and to achieve fairer 
        and more open conditions of trade in bulk, specialty 
        crop, and value-added commodities by--
                  (i) reducing or eliminating, by a date 
                certain, tariffs or other charges that decrease 
                market opportunities for United States 
                exports--
                          (I) giving priority to those products 
                        that are subject to significantly 
                        higher tariffs or subsidy regimes of 
                        major producing countries; and
                          (II) providing reasonable adjustment 
                        periods for United States import-
                        sensitive products, in close 
                        consultation with the Congress on such 
                        products before initiating tariff 
                        reduction negotiations;
                  (ii) reducing tariffs to levels that are the 
                same as or lower than those in the United 
                States;
                  (iii) reducing or eliminating subsidies that 
                decrease market opportunities for United States 
                exports or unfairly distort agriculture markets 
                to the detriment of the United States;
                  (iv) allowing the preservation of programs 
                that support family farms and rural communities 
                but do not distort trade;
                  (v) developing disciplines for domestic 
                support programs, so that production that is in 
                excess of domestic food security needs is sold 
                at world prices;
                  (vi) eliminating Government policies that 
                create price-depressing surpluses;
                  (vii) eliminating state trading enterprises 
                whenever possible;
                  (viii) developing, strengthening, and 
                clarifying rules and effective dispute 
                settlement mechanisms to eliminate practices 
                that unfairly decrease United States market 
                access opportunities or distort agricultural 
                markets to the detriment of the United States, 
                particularly with respect to import-sensitive 
                products, including--
                          (I) unfair or trade-distorting 
                        activities of state trading enterprises 
                        and other administrative mechanisms, 
                        with emphasis on requiring price 
                        transparency in the operation of state 
                        trading enterprises and such other 
                        mechanisms in order to end cross 
                        subsidization, price discrimination, 
                        and price undercutting;
                          (II) unjustified trade restrictions 
                        or commercial requirements, such as 
                        labeling, that affect new technologies, 
                        including biotechnology;
                          (III) unjustified sanitary or 
                        phytosanitary restrictions, including 
                        those not based on scientific 
                        principles in contravention of the 
                        Uruguay Round Agreements;
                          (IV) other unjustified technical 
                        barriers to trade; and
                          (V) restrictive rules in the 
                        administration of tariff rate quotas;
                  (ix) eliminating practices that adversely 
                affect trade in perishable or cyclical 
                products, while improving import relief 
                mechanisms to recognize the unique 
                characteristics of perishable and cyclical 
                agriculture;
                  (x) ensuring that the use of import relief 
                mechanisms for perishable and cyclical 
                agriculture are as accessible and timely to 
                growers in the United States as those 
                mechanisms that are used by other countries;
                  (xi) taking into account whether a party to 
                the negotiations has failed to adhere to the 
                provisions of already existing trade agreements 
                with the United States or has circumvented 
                obligations under those agreements;
                  (xii) taking into account whether a product 
                is subject to market distortions by reason of a 
                failure of a major producing country to adhere 
                to the provisions of already existing trade 
                agreements with the United States or by the 
                circumvention by that country of its 
                obligations under those agreements;
                  (xiii) otherwise ensuring that countries that 
                accede to the World Trade Organization have 
                made meaningful market liberalization 
                commitments in agriculture;
                  (xiv) taking into account the impact that 
                agreements covering agriculture to which the 
                United States is a party, including the North 
                American Free Trade Agreement, have on the 
                United States agricultural industry; and
                  (xv) maintaining bona fide food assistance 
                programs and preserving United States market 
                development and export credit programs.
          (B)(i) Before commencing negotiations with respect to 
        agriculture, the United States Trade Representative, in 
        consultation with the Congress, shall seek to develop a 
        position on the treatment of seasonal and perishable 
        agricultural products to be employed in the 
        negotiations in order to develop an international 
        consensus on the treatment of seasonal or perishable 
        agricultural products in investigations relating to 
        dumping and safeguards and in any other relevant area.
          (ii) During any negotiations on agricultural 
        subsidies, the United States Trade Representative shall 
        seek to establish the common base year for calculating 
        the Aggregated Measurement of Support (as defined in 
        the Agreement on Agriculture) as the end of each 
        country's Uruguay Round implementation period, as 
        reported in each country's Uruguay Round market access 
        schedule.
          (iii) The negotiating objective provided in 
        subparagraph (A) applies with respect to agricultural 
        matters to be addressed in any trade agreement entered 
        into under section 2103(a) or (b), including any trade 
        agreement entered into under section 2103(a) or (b) 
        that provides for accession to a trade agreement to 
        which the United States is already a party, such as the 
        North American Free Trade Agreement and the United 
        States-Canada Free Trade Agreement.
          (11) Labor and the environment.--The principal 
        negotiating objectives of the United States with 
        respect to labor and the environment are--
                  (A) to ensure that a party to a trade 
                agreement with the United States does not fail 
                to effectively enforce its environmental or 
                labor laws, through a sustained or recurring 
                course of action or inaction, in a manner 
                affecting trade between the United States and 
                that party after entry into force of a trade 
                agreement between those countries;
                  (B) to recognize that parties to a trade 
                agreement retain the right to exercise 
                discretion with respect to investigatory, 
                prosecutorial, regulatory, and compliance 
                matters and to make decisions regarding the 
                allocation of resources to enforcement with 
                respect to other labor or environmental matters 
                determined to have higher priorities, and to 
                recognize that a country is effectively 
                enforcing its laws if a course of action or 
                inaction reflects a reasonable exercise of such 
                discretion, or results from a bona fide 
                decision regarding the allocation of resources 
                and no retaliation may be authorized based on 
                the exercise of these rights or the right to 
                establish domestic labor standards and levels 
                of environmental protection;
                  (C) to strengthen the capacity of United 
                States trading partners to promote respect for 
                core labor standards (as defined in section 
                2111(2));
                  (D) to strengthen the capacity of United 
                States trading partners to protect the 
                environment through the promotion of 
                sustainable development;
                  (E) to reduce or eliminate government 
                practices or policies that unduly threaten 
                sustainable development;
                  (F) to seek market access, through the 
                elimination of tariffs and nontariff barriers, 
                for United States environmental technologies, 
                goods, and services; and
                  (G) to ensure that labor, environmental, 
                health, or safety policies and practices of the 
                parties to trade agreements with the United 
                States do not arbitrarily or unjustifiably 
                discriminate against United States exports or 
                serve as disguised barriers to trade.
          (12) Dispute settlement and enforcement.--The 
        principal negotiating objectives of the United States 
        with respect to dispute settlement and enforcement of 
        trade agreements are--
                  (A) to seek provisions in trade agreements 
                providing for resolution of disputes between 
                governments under those trade agreements in an 
                effective, timely, transparent, equitable, and 
                reasoned manner, requiring determinations based 
                on facts and the principles of the agreements, 
                with the goal of increasing compliance with the 
                agreements;
                  (B) to seek to strengthen the capacity of the 
                Trade Policy Review Mechanism of the World 
                Trade Organization to review compliance with 
                commitments;
                  (C) to seek provisions encouraging the early 
                identification and settlement of disputes 
                through consultation;
                  (D) to seek provisions to encourage the 
                provision of trade-expanding compensation if a 
                party to a dispute under the agreement does not 
                come into compliance with its obligations under 
                the agreement;
                  (E) to seek provisions to impose a penalty 
                upon a party to a dispute under the agreement 
                that--
                          (i) encourages compliance with the 
                        obligations of the agreement;
                          (ii) is appropriate to the parties, 
                        nature, subject matter, and scope of 
                        the violation; and
                          (iii) has the aim of not adversely 
                        affecting parties or interests not 
                        party to the dispute while maintaining 
                        the effectiveness of the enforcement

          (12) seek to establish consultative mechanisms among 
        parties to trade agreements to examine the trade 
        consequences of significant and unanticipated currency 
        movements and to scrutinize whether a foreign 
        government engaged in a pattern of manipulating its 
        currency to promote a competitive advantage in 
        international trade.
The report under paragraph (11) shall address whether the 
penalty or remedy was effective in changing the behavior of the

SEC. 2103. TRADE AGREEMENTS AUTHORITY.

  (a) Agreements Regarding Tariff Barriers.--
          (1) In general.--Whenever the President determines 
        that one or more existing duties or other import 
        restrictions of any foreign country or the United 
        States are unduly burdening and restricting the foreign 
        trade of the United States and that the purposes, 
        policies, priorities, and objectives of this title will 
        be promoted thereby, the President--
                  (A) may enter into trade agreements with 
                foreign countries before--
                          (i) June 1, 2005; or
                          (ii) June 1, 2007, if trade 
                        authorities procedures are extended 
                        under subsection (c); and
                  (B) may, subject to paragraphs (2) and (3), 
                proclaim--
                          (i) such modification or continuance 
                        of any existing duty,
                          (ii) such continuance of existing 
                        duty-free or excise treatment, or
                          (iii) such additional duties,
                as the President determines to be required or 
                appropriate to carry out any such trade 
                agreement.
        The President shall notify the Congress of the 
        President's intention to enter into an agreement under 
        this subsection.
          (2) Limitations.--No proclamation may be made under 
        paragraph (1) that--
                  (A) reduces any rate of duty (other than a 
                rate of duty that does not exceed 5 percent ad 
                valorem on the date of the enactment of this 
                Act) to a rate of duty which is less than 50 
                percent of the rate of such duty that applies 
                on such date of enactment;
                  (B) notwithstanding paragraph (6), reduces 
                the rate of duty below that applicable under 
                the Uruguay Round Agreements, on any 
                agricultural product which was the subject of 
                tariff reductions by the United States as a 
                result of the Uruguay Round Agreements, for 
                which the rate of duty, pursuant to such 
                Agreements, was reduced on January 1, 1995, to 
                a rate which was not less than 97.5 percent of 
                the rate of duty that applied to such article 
                on December 31, 1994; or
                  (C) increases any rate of duty above the rate 
                that applied on the date of the enactment of 
                this Act.
          (3) Aggregate reduction; exemption from staging.--
                  (A) Aggregate reduction.--Except as provided 
                in subparagraph (B), the aggregate reduction in 
                the rate of duty on any article which is in 
                effect on any day pursuant to a trade agreement 
                entered into under paragraph (1) shall not 
                exceed the aggregate reduction which would have 
                been in effect on such day if--
                          (i) a reduction of 3 percent ad 
                        valorem or a reduction of one-tenth of 
                        the total reduction, whichever is 
                        greater, had taken effect on the 
                        effective date of the first reduction 
                        proclaimed under paragraph (1) to carry 
                        out such agreement with respect to such 
                        article; and
                          (ii) a reduction equal to the amount 
                        applicable under clause (i) had taken 
                        effect at 1-year intervals after the 
                        effective date of such first reduction.
                  (B) Exemption from staging.--No staging is 
                required under subparagraph (A) with respect to 
                a duty reduction that is proclaimed under 
                paragraph (1) for an article of a kind that is 
                not produced in the United States. The United 
                States International Trade Commission shall 
                advise the President of the identity of 
                articles that may be exempted from staging 
                under this subparagraph.
          (4) Rounding.--If the President determines that such 
        action will simplify the computation of reductions 
        under paragraph (3), the President may round an annual 
        reduction by an amount equal to the lesser of--
                  (A) the difference between the reduction 
                without regard to this paragraph and the next 
                lower whole number; or
                  (B) one-half of 1 percent ad valorem.
          (5) Other limitations.--A rate of duty reduction that 
        may not be proclaimed by reason of paragraph (2) may 
        take effect only if a provision authorizing such 
        reduction is included within an implementing bill 
        provided for under section 5 and that bill is enacted 
        into law.
          (6) Other tariff modifications.--Notwithstanding 
        paragraphs (1)(B), (2)(A), (2)(C), and (3) through (5),

        requirements of section 115 of the Uruguay Round 
        Agreements Act, the President may proclaim the 
        modification of any duty or staged rate reduction of 
        any duty set forth in Schedule XX, as defined in 
        section 2(5) of that Act, if the United States agrees 
        to such modification or staged rate reduction in a 
        negotiation for the reciprocal elimination or 
        harmonization of duties under the auspices of the World 
        Trade Organization.

        3521(b)).

          (1) In general.--(A) Whenever the President 
        determines that--
                  (i) one or more existing duties or any other 
                import restriction of any foreign country or 
                the United States or any other barrier to, or 
                other distortion of, international trade unduly 
                burdens or restricts the foreign trade of the 
                United States or adversely affects the United 
                States economy; or
                  (ii) the imposition of any such barrier or 
                distortion is likely to result in such a 
                burden, restriction, or effect;
        and that the purposes, policies, priorities, and 
        objectives of this title will be promoted thereby, the

        the Congress under paragraph (2). The Advisory 
        Committee shall submit to the Congress as soon as 
        practicable, but not later than May 1, 2005, a written

          (4) Status of reports.--The reports submitted to the 
        Congress under paragraphs (2) and (3), or any portion 
        of such reports, may be classified to the extent the 
        President determines appropriate.
          (5) Extension disapproval resolutions.--(A) For 
        purposes of paragraph (1), the term ``extension 
        disapproval resolution'' means a resolution of either

        implementing bill submitted with respect to any trade 
        agreement entered into under section 2103(b) of that 
        Act after June 30, 2005.'', with the blank space being 
        filled with the name of the resolving House of the 
        Congress.

                  (i) may be introduced in either House of the 
                Congress by any member of such House; and
                  (ii) shall be referred, in the House of 
                Representatives, to the Committee on Ways and 
                Means and, in addition, to the Committee on 
                Rules.
          (C) The provisions of section 152(d) and (e) of the 
        Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2192(d) and (e)) (relating 
        to the floor consideration of certain resolutions in 
        the House and Senate) apply to extension disapproval 
        resolutions.
          (D) It is not in order for--
                  (i) the Senate to consider any extension 
                disapproval resolution not reported by the

  (d) Commencement of Negotiations.--In order to contribute to 
the continued economic expansion of the United States, the 
President shall commence negotiations covering tariff and 
nontariff barriers affecting any industry, product, or service 
sector, and expand existing sectoral agreements to countries 
that are not parties to those agreements, in cases where the 
President determines that such negotiations are feasible and 
timely and would benefit the United States. Such sectors 
include agriculture, commercial services, intellectual property 
rights, industrial and capital goods, government procurement, 
information technology products, environmental technology and 
services, medical equipment and services, civil aircraft, and 
infrastructure products. In so doing, the President shall take 
into account all of the principal negotiating objectives set 
forth in section 2102(b).

SEC. 2104. CONSULTATIONS AND ASSESSMENT.

  (a) Notice and Consultation Before Negotiation.--The 
President, with respect to any agreement that is subject to the 
provisions of section 2103(b), shall--
          (1) provide, at least 90 calendar days before 
        initiating negotiations, written notice to the Congress 
        of the President's intention to enter into the 
        negotiations and set forth therein the date the 
        President intends to initiate such negotiations, the 
        specific United States objectives for the negotiations, 
        and whether the President intends to seek an agreement, 
        or changes to an existing agreement;
          (2) before and after submission of the notice, 
        consult regarding the negotiations with the Committee 
        on Finance of the Senate and the Committee on Ways and 
        Means of the House of Representatives, such other 
        committees of the House and Senate as the President 
        deems appropriate, and the Congressional Oversight 
        group convened under section 2107; and
          (3) upon the request of a majority of the members of 
        the Congressional Oversight Group under section 
        2107(c), meet with the Congressional Oversight Group 
        before initiating the negotiations or at any other time 
        concerning the negotiations.
  (b) Negotiations Regarding Agriculture.--
          (1) In general.--Before initiating or continuing 
        negotiations the subject matter of which is directly 
        related to the subject matter under section 
        2102(b)(10)(A)(i) with any country, the President shall 
        assess whether United States tariffs on agricultural 
        products that were bound under the Uruguay Round 
        Agreements are lower than the tariffs bound by that 
        country. In addition, the President shall consider 
        whether the tariff levels bound and applied throughout 
        the world with respect to imports from the United 
        States are higher than United States tariffs and 
        whether the negotiation provides an opportunity to 
        address any such disparity. The President shall consult 
        with the Committee on Ways and Means and the Committee 
        on Agriculture of the House of Representatives and the 
        Committee on Finance and the Committee on Agriculture, 
        Nutrition, and Forestry of the Senate concerning the 
        results of the assessment, whether it is appropriate 
        for the United States to agree to further tariff 
        reductions based on the conclusions reached in the 
        assessment, and how all applicable negotiating 
        objectives will be met.
          (2) Special consultations on import sensitive 
        products.--(A) Before initiating negotiations with 
        regard to agriculture, and, with respect to the Free 
        Trade Area for the Americas and negotiations with 
        regard to agriculture under the auspices of the World 
        Trade Organization, as soon as practicable after the 
        enactment of this Act, the United States Trade 
        Representative shall--
                  (i) identify those agricultural products 
                subject to tariff reductions by the United 
                States as a result of the Uruguay Round 
                Agreements, for which the rate of duty was 
                reduced on January 1, 1995, to a rate which was 
                not less than 97.5 percent of the rate of duty 
                that applied to such article on December 31, 
                1994;
                  (ii) consult with the Committee on Ways and 
                Means and the Committee on Agriculture of the 
                House of Representatives and the Committee on 
                Finance and the Committee on Agriculture, 
                Nutrition, and Forestry of the Senate 
                concerning--
                          (I) whether any further tariff 
                        reductions on the products identified 
                        under clause (i) should be appropriate, 
                        taking into account the impact of any 
                        such tariff reduction on the United 
                        States industry producing the product 
                        concerned; and
                          (II) whether the products so 
                        identified face unjustified sanitary or 
                        phytosanitary restrictions, including 
                        those not based on scientific 
                        principles in contravention of the 
                        Uruguay Round Agreements;
                  (iii) request that the International Trade 
                Commission prepare an assessment of the 
                probable economic effects of any such tariff 
                reduction on the United States industry 
                producing the product concerned and on the 
                United States economy as a whole; and
                  (iv) upon complying with clauses (i), (ii), 
                and (iii), notify the Committee on Ways and 
                Means and the Committee on Agriculture of the 
                House of Representatives and the Committee on 
                Finance and the Committee on Agriculture, 
                Nutrition, and Forestry of the Senate of those 
                products identified under clause (i) for which 
                the Trade Representative intends to seek tariff 
                liberalization in the negotiations and the 
                reasons for seeking such tariff liberalization.
          (B) If, after negotiations described in subparagraph 
        (A) are commenced--
                  (i) the United States Trade Representative 
                identifies any additional agricultural product 
                described in subparagraph (A)(i) for tariff 
                reductions which were not the subject of a 
                notification under subparagraph (A)(iv), or
                  (ii) any additional agricultural product 
                described in subparagraph (A)(i) is the subject 
                of a request for tariff reductions by a party 
                to the negotiations,
        the Trade Representative shall, as soon as practicable, 
        notify the committees referred to in subparagraph 
        (A)(iv) of those products and the reasons for seeking 
        such tariff reductions.
  (c) Negotiations Regarding Textiles.--Before initiating or 
continuing negotiations the subject matter of which is directly 
related to textiles and apparel products with any country, the 
President shall assess whether United States tariffs on textile 
and apparel products that were bound under the Uruguay Round 
Agreements are lower than the tariffs bound by that country and 
whether the negotiation provides an opportunity to address any 
such disparity. The President shall consult with the Committee 
on Ways and Means of the House of Representatives and the 
Committee on Finance of the Senate concerning the results of 
the assessment, whether it is appropriate for the United States 
to agree to further tariff reductions based on the conclusions 
reached in the assessment, and how all applicable negotiating 
objectives will be met.
  (d) Consultation With Congress Before Agreements Entered 
Into.--
          (1) Consultation.--Before entering into any trade 
        agreement under section 2103(b), the President shall 
        consult with--

                Congress, which has jurisdiction over 
                legislation involving subject matters which 
                would be affected by the trade agreement; and
                  (C) the Congressional Oversight Group 
                convened under section 2107.
          (2) Scope.--The consultation described in paragraph 
        (1) shall include consultation with respect to--

          (1) In general.--The President, at least 90 calendar 
        days before the day on which the President enters into 
        a trade agreement under section 2103(b), shall provide 
        the International Trade Commission (referred to in this 
        subsection as ``the Commission'') with the details of 
        the agreement as it exists at that time and request the 
        Commission to prepare and submit an assessment of the 
        agreement as described in paragraph (2). Between the 
        time the President makes the request under this 
        paragraph and the time the Commission submits the

        literature regarding any substantially equivalent 
        proposed agreement, and shall provide in its assessment 
        a description of the analyses used and conclusions 
        drawn in such literature, and a discussion of areas of

        and conclusions, including those of the Commission 
        regarding the agreement.

                  (A) the President, at least 90 calendar days 
                before the day on which the President enters

                  (B) a statement--
                          (i) asserting that the agreement

                        President regarding--
                                  (I) how and to what extent 
                                the agreement makes progress in 
                                achieving the applicable 
                                purposes, policies, and 
                                objectives referred to in 
                                clause (i);
                                  (II) whether and how the 
                                agreement changes provisions of 
                                an agreement previously 
                                negotiated;
                                  (III) how the agreement 
                                serves the interests of United 
                                States commerce;
                                  (IV) how the implementing

                                priorities.
          (3) Reciprocal benefits.--In order to ensure that a 
        foreign country that is not a party to a trade 
        agreement entered into under section 2103(b) does not 
        receive benefits under the agreement unless the country 
        is also subject to the obligations under the agreement,

        agreement shall provide that the benefits and 
        obligations under the agreement apply only to the 
        parties to the agreement, if such application is 
        consistent with the terms of the agreement. The 
        implementing bill may also provide that the benefits 
        and obligations under the agreement do not apply 
        uniformly to all parties to the agreement, if such 
        application is consistent with the terms of the

SEC. 2109. COMMITTEE STAFF.

  The grant of trade promotion authority under this title is 
likely to increase the activities of the primary committees of 
jurisdiction in the area of international trade. In addition, 
the creation of the Congressional Oversight Group under section 
2107 will increase the participation of a broader number of 
Members of Congress in the formulation of United States trade 
policy and oversight of the international trade agenda for the 
United States. The primary committees of jurisdiction should 
have adequate staff to accommodate these increases in 
activities.

                DIVISION C--ANDEAN TRADE PREFERENCE ACT

                  TITLE XXXI--ANDEAN TRADE PREFERENCE

SEC. 3101. SHORT TITLE.

  This title may be cited as the ``Andean Trade Promotion and 
Drug Eradication Act''.

SEC. 3102. FINDINGS.

  Congress makes the following findings:
          (1) Since the Andean Trade Preference Act was enacted 
        in 1991, it has had a positive impact on United States 
        trade with Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Two-
        way trade has doubled, with the United States serving 
        as the leading source of imports and leading export 
        market for each of the Andean beneficiary countries. 
        This has resulted in increased jobs and expanded export 
        opportunities in both the United States and the Andean 
        region.
          (2) The Andean Trade Preference Act has been a key 
        element in the United States counternarcotics strategy 
        in the Andean region, promoting export diversification 
        and broad-based economic development that provides 
        sustainable economic alternatives to drug-crop 
        production, strengthening the legitimate economies of 
        Andean countries and creating viable alternatives to 
        illicit trade in coca.
          (3) Notwithstanding the success of the Andean Trade 
        Preference Act, the Andean region remains threatened by 
        political and economic instability and fragility, 
        vulnerable to the consequences of the drug war and 
        fierce global competition for its legitimate trade.
          (4) The continuing instability in the Andean region 
        poses a threat to the security interests of the United 
        States and the world. This problem has been partially 
        addressed through foreign aid, such as Plan Colombia, 
        enacted by Congress in 2000. However, foreign aid alone 
        is not sufficient. Enhancement of legitimate trade with 
        the United States provides an alternative means for 
        reviving and stabilizing the economies in the Andean 
        region.
          (5) The Andean Trade Preference Act constitutes a 
        tangible commitment by the United States to the 
        promotion of prosperity, stability, and democracy in 
        the beneficiary countries.
          (6) Renewal and enhancement of the Andean Trade 
        Preference Act will bolster the confidence of domestic 
        private enterprise and foreign investors in the 
        economic prospects of the region, ensuring that 
        legitimate private enterprise can be the engine of 
        economic development and political stability in the 
        region.
          (7) Each of the Andean beneficiary countries is 
        committed to conclude negotiation of a Free Trade Area 
        of the Americas by the year 2005, as a means of 
        enhancing the economic security of the region.
          (8) Temporarily enhancing trade benefits for Andean 
        beneficiary countries will promote the growth of free 
        enterprise and economic opportunity in these countries 
        and serve the security interests of the United States, 
        the region, and the world.
