Memorandum of June 21, 2024
Establishment of the Economic Diplomacy Action
Group and Delegation of Certain Functions and
Authorities Under the Championing American Business
Through Diplomacy Act of 2019
Memorandum for the Secretary of State[,] the Secretary
of the Treasury[,] the Secretary of Agriculture[,] the
Secretary of Commerce[,] the United States Trade
Representative[,] the Administrator of the United
States Agency for International Development[,] the
President of the Export-Import Bank of the United
States[, and] the Chief Executive Officer of the United
States International Development Finance Corporation
Supporting United States economic and business
interests abroad is a foreign policy priority. United
States business has a critical role to play in
advancing broader United States national security and
foreign policy interests. Economic diplomacy can help
to promote broad-based, inclusive, responsible, and
sustainable economic growth, which enhances regional
stability and creates new and growing markets for
United States companies and opportunities for United
States workers. By the authority vested in me as
President by the Constitution and the laws of the
United States of America, including section 301 of
title 3, United States Code, and section 708 of the
Championing American Business Through Diplomacy Act of
2019 (Title VII of Division J of Public Law 116-94)
(the ``Act''), I hereby establish the Economic
Diplomacy Action Group (EDAG) and delegate to you the
functions and authorities vested in the President by
subsection 708(c)(3) of the Act to appoint to the EDAG
senior officials from your respective executive
departments and agencies (agencies).
With respect to the performance of responsibilities
under this memorandum, the Secretary of State, in
coordination with the heads of relevant agencies, shall
encourage and coordinate the appointment of members of
the EDAG by the heads of their respective agencies.
Consistent with the Act, such members, as well as any
designated alternates, shall be senior officials who
exercise significant decision-making authority within
their respective agencies.
The delegation in this memorandum shall apply to any
provisions of any future public laws that are the same
or substantially the same as those provisions
referenced in this memorandum.
