Since 1974, the United States Congress has several times enacted Trade Promotion Authority (TPA), defining the conditions and procedures for voting using a streamlined or expedited procedure, also known as the fast-track procedure, to pass implementing legislation in Congress for international trade agreements negotiated during a specific defined period of time. The 2015 TPA, passed in June 2015, contains the requirements and procedures for fast-track adoption of any international agreement entered into by the US before 1 July 2018 (with possible extension up to 1 July 2021) including any resulting from the ongoing Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) negotiations. Written by Micaela Del Monte and Laura Puccio. |
