2021 is off to a quick start. Below is a list of upcoming key dates to keep an eye on:

  • Jan. 20: Biden takes office as the 46th president of the United States.
  • February: Hearings and confirmation votes on Biden’s cabinet nominees, including USTR-designate Katherine Tai, the chief trade counsel for the U.S. House Committee on Ways and Means and Governor Gina Raimondo of Rhode Island for Secretary of Commerce
  • Feb. 11: Deadline for the International Trade Commission to determine whether the volume of blueberry imports warrants the United States imposing emergency restrictions
  • Mid-February: Semi-annual deadline for USTR to announce any changes to current retaliation on $7.5 billion worth of EU goods in the Airbus-Boeing aircraft subsidy dispute.
  • Feb. 28: Deadline for USTR to release its annual report on the president’s trade agenda. This would be the first such report of Biden’s presidency.
  • March 1: As required by statute, the President’s Trade Policy Agenda and Annual Report is submitted to Congress
  • April 1: Expiration of the Bipartisan Congressional Trade Priorities and Accountability Act of 2015 (known as Trade Promotion Authority or TPA)
  • April 1: Deadline for White House to notify Congress of its intention to sign a free trade agreement with the United Kingdom or any other country before the 2015 TPA expires.
  • April 9-11: The International Monetary Fund and World Bank are scheduled to hold their spring meetings in Washington.
  • April 15: Deadline for the U.S. Treasury Department to release its annual report on foreign exchange rate policies. The Trump administration formally labeled Vietnam and Switzerland as currency manipulators in its last report before leaving office.
  • April 30: Deadline for USTR to release its annual report on how well other countries protect U.S. intellectual property rights.

Unfinished Business: the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) expired on December 31st, and legislators failed to pass a new Miscellaneous Tariff Bill (MTB) in 2020.
