Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the United States should reaffirm its commitment as a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and work with other WTO members to achieve reforms at the WTO that improve the speed and predictability of dispute settlement, address longstanding concerns with the WTO's Appellate Body, increase transparency at the WTO, ensure that WTO members invoke special and differential treatment reserved for developing countries only in fair and appropriate circumstances, and update the WTO rules to address the needs of the United States and other free and open economies in the 21st century.

This resolution expresses the formal opinion of the House of Representatives that the United States should remain a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) while leading efforts to modernize its operations. The proposal calls for specific reforms to speed up the resolution of international trade disputes, increase transparency among member nations, and update trade rules to better reflect the modern global economy.

For American citizens, this measure aims to create a more stable and predictable environment for international commerce, which can help protect domestic industries from unfair foreign trade practices. By seeking to improve how trade disagreements are settled, the resolution intends to support a more competitive marketplace for U.S. goods and services, potentially impacting job stability and the cost of imported products.
