Memorandum of December 8, 2017
Delaying Submission of the Small Business
Administration Report Under the Trade Facilitation and
Trade Enforcement Act of 2015
Memorandum for the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the
Small Business Administration
The Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act of
2015 (TFTEA) (Public Law 114-125) requires you to
submit to the Congress a report on the economic impacts
of a covered trade agreement on small businesses not
less than 180 days after you convene an Interagency
Working Group for the relevant trade agreement. The
report for the renegotiation of the North American Free
Trade Agreement (NAFTA) will soon be due. To ensure
that the negotiations are not disrupted, however, by
the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States of
America, including section 502 of the TFTEA, I require
you to delay the submission of the report until after
the negotiations are concluded, but not later than 30
days after a renegotiated agreement is signed, provided
that the delay allows you to submit the report to the
Congress not later than 45 days before the Senate or
the House of Representatives acts to approve or
disapprove the trade agreement.
You are authorized and directed to publish this
memorandum in the Federal Register.
(Presidential Sig.)
