I’ve been working with the group to help them organize. It’s a critical issue to these countries in which the impacts of non-renewal are real and visceral. Although the coalition includes some of the larger users of GSP, it includes vulnerable and smaller economies as well, such as three-year-old Kosovo from which more than 50 percent of its U.S. imports entered under GSP in 2010; Paraguay for which 71% of its imports last year entered under GSP; countries whose exports are less diverse including Mongolia, Nepal, and Uruguay; and Sri Lanka which is seeking to recover after a more than three decades-long war. The diversity of the coalition members represents the range of opportunities that GSP gives to people’s lives, businesses, and futures – and now does not.
