Advisory Committee on International Economic Policy

Committee membership consists of representatives of American organizations and institutions, including from business, labor, environment, academia, legal consultancies, and other public interest groups.

Full ACIEP meetings take place three times per year and are open to the public unless indicated otherwise in the Federal Register. Current subgroups, which meet more frequently, consist of economic sanctions and strategic regions. Participants' statements are not for attribution.
