Congressional Pro-Trade Caucus

Congressional Pro-Trade Caucus

The Congressional Pro-Trade Caucus (CPTC), founded by Democratic Congressman Henry Cuellar in 2009, during the 111th Congress. Congressman Cuellar, a member of the coalition of Blue Dog Democrats, characterizes the group as Democrats and Republicans from all across the country, united by the belief that trade is the lifeblood of the global economy and that healthy trade is a prerequisite for economic recovery.[1] One of the primary issues of interest to the group is the NAFTA-Mexican trucking dispute.[2]
