\n<\/a>commended President Obama and President Santos for their bold leadership in reaching today\u2019s agreement on a path forward to Congressional approval of the long pending U.S.-Colombia Trade Promotion Agreement. \u201cToday, the United States is one step closer to renewing its traditional role as a leader in enhancing regional competitiveness. The immediate result will be more jobs and economic growth in both the United States and Colombia. Looking forward, this bodes well for trade liberalization efforts hemisphere-wide,\u201d said Juan Manuel Carre\u00f3n, Chair of AACCLA. \u201cWe call on the White House and Congressional leadership to move forward with this agreement\u2014and its counterpart agreement with Panama\u2014as soon as possible.\u201d \u201cThe Colombian and Panamanian Trade Promotion Agreements are absolutely critical to
\nU.S. national interests in the Western Hemisphere,\u201d added Patrick Kilbride, Executive Vice- President of AACCLA. \u201cApproval and implementation of these two agreements will clearly demonstrate to Latin Americans across the region that the United States continues to stand with them as they consolidate their economic freedoms, democracy, and human rights.\u201d
\nFor nearly a century, the American Chambers of Commerce (AmChams) have been the most influential voice of U.S. business in Latin America and the Caribbean. Today, joined together in the Association of American Chambers of Commerce in Latin America, these 23 AmChams represent more than 20,000 companies and over 80% of U.S. investment in the region.

AACCLA’s mission is to promote trade and investment between the United States and the countries of the region through free trade, free markets, and free enterprise.
