President Biden’s nominee for U.S. Trade Representative expressed a unifying tone during her confirmation hearing Thursday.
Katherine Tai says if confirmed as USTR, her office will pursue trade policies that advance the interests of all Americans.
“Policies that recognize that people are workers and wage earners, not just consumers. Policies that promote broad equitable growth here at home, (and) polices that support American innovation and enhance our competitive edge.”
Tai says she would make it a priority to rebuild international alliances and partnerships.
