WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Brett Guthrie (KY-02), Chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, issued the following statement after the Honorable Jamieson Greer was confirmed by the Senate to serve as U.S. Trade Representative:

“Domestic manufacturers, innovators, and small businesses depend on sound trade policy that supports economic growth and works for every American. It is critically important that companies are investing here in America and able to export to markets abroad, including through cutting-edge digital services. I believe that Mr. Greer can help deliver those results,” said Chairman Guthrie. “I congratulate Mr. Greer on his new role as U.S. Trade Representative and I look forward to working with him to remove unfair barriers used to target American companies."
