Lighthizer Confirmation Letter

This week, NAEGA signed a letter organized by the U.S. Food and Agriculture Dialogue for Trade that calls for the Senate to confirm Robert Lighthizer, President Trump’s nominee for U.S. Trade Representative. The letter highlights the importance of international trade as a part of the U.S. economy and emphasizes the urgency of renegotiating NAFTA and pursuing additional bi-lateral trade agreements “to secure the greatest possible benefits for U.S. workers, farmers, ranchers, and businesses.” A copy of the draft is available here.
