Pursuant to section 2102(c) of the Trade Act of 2002
The Trade Act of 2002 (Public Law 107-210) created special procedures for Congressional
approval of trade agreements that make progress in achieving certain objectives and priorities
set out in the Act. The Administration is also required to satisfy detailed consultation and
notification requirements. Under these special procedures, Congress must act quickly on
legislation approving and implementing such an agreement. Pursuant to section 2102(c) of the
Trade Act of 2002, the President is also required to prepare several reports to the Congress
related to new free trade agreements. Among these reports are a United States Employment
Impact Review, Labor Rights Report, and Laws Governing Exploitative Child Labor Report. The
Department of Labor, in consultation with other federal agencies, has been delegated the
responsibility for preparing these three reports.
