What this bill would do

This bill, known as the ``USTR Inspector General Act of 2025'', seeks to amend title 5 of the United States Code. The primary purpose is to establish an Inspector General for the Office of the United States Trade Representative. It requires the President to appoint an individual to this role within 120 days of the Act's enactment. This change updates various definitions within section 401 of title 5 to include the Office of the United States Trade Representative.
