Congressman Brett Guthrie, representing Kentucky's 2nd district and Chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, expressed his views following the Senate's confirmation of Jamieson Greer as U.S. Trade Representative. In his statement, Guthrie emphasized the importance of trade policy for domestic manufacturers, innovators, and small businesses.
"Domestic manufacturers, innovators, and small businesses depend on sound trade policy that supports economic growth and works for every American," stated Guthrie.

Guthrie expressed confidence in Greer's ability to achieve these objectives. "I believe that Mr. Greer can help deliver those results," he said. Furthermore, he extended his congratulations to Greer on his new appointment and expressed anticipation in collaborating with him to eliminate unfair barriers targeting American companies.
