International Trade Commission

The International Trade Commission (ITC) is a U.S. federal agency that helps manage international trade issues. Its main roles include investigating unfair trade practices, such as patent infringement and dumping (selling goods at unfairly low prices), and providing economic analysis on trade. The ITC also protects U.S. industries by making recommendations to impose tariffs or other trade remedies when necessary. By doing so, it aims to maintain fair competition and support American businesses and workers in a global market, ultimately influencing trade policies and agreements.
