# USTR Seeks USMCA Review Input

The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) opened a public consultation ahead of the 2027 joint review of the USMCA, inviting comments on how the agreement is operating and requests to testify at a public hearing. Companies and trade associations whose cross-border sourcing, manufacturing, or government supply chains depend on USMCA rules can submit comments and hearing requests by **January 12, 2027, at 11:59 p.m. EST**; USTR will announce hearing details later.

- Procurement teams and contractors with USMCA-dependent supply chains can submit evidence on how the agreement affects sourcing, manufacturing, and government-supply operations.
- Companies seeking to present their views directly should include a hearing request by the same deadline; the consultation is an opportunity to inform the review, not a contract solicitation.
- The deadline is 101 days from October 3, 2026. Organizations should coordinate input across trade, procurement, and supply-chain teams before submitting.
