Gabriella Beaumont‐Smith is a policy analyst at the Cato Institute’s Herbert A. Stiefel Center for Trade Policy Studies, in Washington, D.C. Her research focuses on the economics of U.S. trade policy.
On March 1, 2022, U.S. President Joe Biden gave his first State of the Union (SOTU) speech. While trade policy has not been a priority for the Biden Administration, it played a larger than expected role in the speech. The president not only explicitly spoke about trade policy but discussed other priorities less obviously related to trade.
