Amendment renewing TPA passes

The U.S. Senate on Saturday, March 23 passed an amendment by Ohio Senator Rob Portman and Ron Wyden of Oregon that would increase export opportunities by renewing Trade Promotion Authority (TPA).

With exports crucial to getting America’s economy back on track, Portman, the former U.S. Trade Representative, said that while he supports the export agreements the Administration is considering, the President’s trade negotiators must have TPA to ensure the best possible deal.
