The Latin America Trade Coalition is a broad-based group of more than 1,200 U.S. companies, business organizations, farm and ranch groups, and chambers of commerce working to secure Congressional approval of the Trade Promotion Agreements with Colombia and Panama. Led by co-chairs Bill Lane, Washington Director for Government Affairs of Caterpillar; Laura Lane, Senior Vice President for Public Policy of Citigroup; Sarah Thorn, Director, International Trade, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.; Dana Gray, Governmental Programs Executive, IBM Corp.; and Meredith Anderson, Director, International Trade Policy, Oracle. The coalition's goal is to secure Congressional approval of the U.S.-Colombia Trade Promotion Agreement and the U.S.-Panama Trade Promotion Agreement. It also played a leading role in the successful campaign for approval of the U.S.-Peru Trade Promotion Agreement.

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