Democrats Push Environmental Enforcement for AGOA Trade Program
Original: Democrats Move to Add Environmental Enforcement to AGOA
Congressional Democrats are moving to add environmental enforcement provisions to the African Growth and Opportunity Act, the US trade program that gives eligible African countries duty-free access to American markets. The push would tie trade benefits to environmental standards, a change that could affect how partner countries qualify and could reshape debate over the program's renewal.
Why now: Lawmakers are weighing changes to AGOA as its renaissance and renewal come up for debate in Congress.
