Advocacy

NAFTZ serves as the unified voice of the U.S. Foreign-Trade Zone community and works to ensure the continued effectiveness and integrity of this congressionally established program. We engage proactively with Congress, federal agencies, and administration officials to support policies and administrative practices that strengthen the program and the U.S. economy.

Drawing on the real-world expertise of our diverse membership, NAFTZ provides policymakers and regulators with practical insight into how trade and customs policies affect American operations, investment, and jobs. This engagement helps ensure informed decision-making and the continued success of the FTZ program as a tool of U.S. economic competitiveness.
