Congressman Erik Paulsen (MN-03) released the following statement after Trade Promotion Authority legislation passed the House of Representatives.\r\n\r\n\tSimply put, todays action is a win for Minnesota workers, farmers, ranchers, and businesses, said Paulsen. Embracing new trade opportunities means more jobs and increased wages for hard-working Americans, and thats why weve seen Republicans and Democrats in Congress work with the President to move this issue forward.\r\n\r\n\tIts also about the future of American leadership. The U.S. needs to be writing the rules for our global economy, instead of countries like China. Todays vote gets us off the sidelines and back into the game. \r\n\r\n\tPaulsen authored a recent Star Tribune Op-Ed on how embracing trade opportunities will benefit Minnesotans.\r\n\r\n\tCongressman Paulsen, a champion of small business and advocate of free enterprise, entrepreneurship, and innovation, serves on the House Ways and Means Committee, the bicameral Joint Economic Committee, and is co-chair of the Congressional Medical Technology Caucus.\r\n\r\n\tFor more information on Congressman Paulsens work in Congress visitpaulsen.house.gov.\r\n\r\n\t###", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://paulsen.house.gov/index.cfm?sectionid=22&itemid=1713"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.910972012206912, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
