Welcome to the Latin America Trade Coalition website

The Latin America Trade Coalition — one of the largest trade coalitions in history — represents more than 1,200 U.S. companies, business organizations, farm and ranch groups, and chambers of commerce that directly employ more than 10 million American workers. This broad-based group is working toward the common goal of securing Congressional approval of the U.S.-Colombia Trade Promotion Agreement and the U.S.-Panama Trade Promotion Agreement.

The coalition is led by co-chairs Bill Lane, Washington Director for Government Affairs of Caterpillar; Laura Lane, Managing Director and Head of International Government Affairs of Citigroup; Sarah Thorn, Director, International Trade, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.; Dana Gray, Governmental Programs Executive, IBM Corp.; Meredith Anderson, Director, International Trade Policy, Oracle; and Del Renigar, Senior Counsel, International Policy and Trade Regulation, General Electric.

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce serves as the coalition’s secretariat. For more information on the coalition and its activities, please contact Reuben Smith-Vaughan at rsmith@uschamber.com.
