Trade & Competitiveness

Smart Policies Allow U.S. Automotive Communities to Thrive

Automakers are making significant investments into their workforce, manufacturing, and communities in the United States.  Autos Drive America supports the adoption of free trade policies as they lead to expanded competition and increased consumer choice. Trade policies have to strike the right balance between policies that increase investment at home and expand exports abroad.

Jobs. Trade. Growth.

Fair and progressive trade and investment policies allow international automakers to play a critical role in American job creation, manufacturing, economic growth, and technological innovation.
