Para. 22.5  trade policy agenda and agreements program

  The Clerk then read the message from the President, as follows:

To the Congress of the United States:
  In accordance with Section 163 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended 
(19 U.S.C. 2213), I am pleased to submit herewith the 1993 Trade Policy 
Agenda and 1992 Annual Report on the Trade Agreements Program.
  In recent days, I have emphasized the central role that international 
trade must play in promoting the economic growth of our country. The 
attached agenda outlines the tasks that lie before us in the area of 
trade.
  The breadth of the agenda highlights the scope of the challenge we 
confront, but also the great potential for creating new jobs for 
Americans. From manufacturing to services, from entertainment products 
to agriculture, opportunities for U.S. exports exist around the globe.
  In tandem with the Congress, I will work to ensure that all Americans 
with a competitive product have the opportunity to tap the global 
marketplace.
                                                   William J. Clinton.  
  The White House, March 5, 1993.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore, Mr. McDERMOTT, by unanimous consent, the 
message, together with the accompanying papers, was referred to the 
Committee on Ways and Means.
