HR 4271 United States House · 118th Congress

Promoting Rural Exports Act of 2023

This bill establishes a Rural Export Center within the U.S. Commercial Service to help rural businesses overcome export barriers. The Center provides customized market research (focused on up to three international markets), strategic planning, and export support services tailored to rural businesses' specific products and needs. It requires tracking metrics like the number of businesses served, services used (e.g., trade shows), and the total export value facilitated. The Center must operate from existing U.S. Commercial Service offices, prioritizing locations with prior rural export support experience outside major cities.
