Kevin Burke, President and CEO of AAFA, issued a statement after the government issued the plan.

He said: "the plan put forward by President Obama has made a solid step for us trade policy.

AAFA commended the priorities of the report, including opening up new markets, smoothing trade barriers, expanding credit for small and medium-sized enterprises, and implementing the rules of the global trading system.


"At the same time, we should not concentrate on exports alone.

Economic recovery

The United States is the home of 3 million importers.

As outlined in AAFA's blueprint for doubling US exports this summer, imports play an important role in the sustained development of the domestic economy.


"If the goal of the national export initiative is to increase employment opportunities in the US manufacturing industry, we must seriously study the reform of the federal prison industry (FPI) plan.

This federally supported plan employs more than 18000 federal prisoners instead of paid American workers, including more than 6500 workers who produce uniforms, footwear, parachutes and other textiles, which are provided to our military and women.

Manufacturing enterprises employing thousands of American workers are eager to export their products, but their share of the US market has been shrinking, while FPI has made huge profits.


"The American clothing and footwear industry will continue to work with the Obama administration, Congress and industry to ensure that we seize every opportunity for growth."


The American clothing and Footwear Association (AAFA) is the national trade association. It represents apparel and footwear sewing products companies and their suppliers. They participate in global market competition.

The mission of AAFA is to promote and strengthen the competitiveness, productivity and profitability of its members in the global market.
