| 105-hconres-213 | 105 | hconres | 213 | Expressing the sense of the Congress that the European Union is unfairly restricting the importation of United States agriculture products and the elimination of such restrictions should be a top priority in trade negotiations with the European Union. | Foreign Trade and International Finance | 1998-02-11 | 1998-08-31 | Received in the Senate and referred to the Committee on Finance. | House | Rep. Ewing, Thomas W. [R-IL-15] | IL | R | E000282 | 1 | Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) many nations, including the European Union, unfairly restrict the importation of U.S. agricultural products; (2) the elimination of such restrictions should be a top priority of any current or future trade negotiation; (3) the President should develop a trade agenda which addresses agricultural trade barriers in multilateral and bilateral trade negotiations and pursues full compliance with dispute settlement decisions of the World Trade Organization (WTO); (4) in such negotiations, the United States should seek to obtain competitive opportunities for U.S. exports of agricultural products in foreign markets equivalent to those afforded to foreign exports in U.S. markets; (5) the U.S. Trade Representative should not engage in any trade negotiation with the European Union that undermines U.S. ability to achieve a successful result in the WTO negotiations on agriculture set to begin in December 1999; and (6) the President should consult with the Congress with respect to trade negotiations in agriculture. | 2025-04-07T15:31:43Z |
