Adrian Smith (R-NE), Chairman of the Ways and Means Trade Subcommittee, released the following statement after the U.S. Senate voted to confirm Joseph Barloon as United States Deputy Trade Representative and Ambassador to the World Trade Organization (WTO). "Congratulations to Joseph Barloon on his confirmation as Deputy U.S. Trade Representative and U.S. Ambassador to the WTO. U.S. leadership on trade remains crucial to leveling the playing field for hardworking Americans, and his experience will complement the Trump administration's vigorous approach on trade issues. Unfortunately, the previous administration abdicated American leadership on trade. The U.S. must be a leader in setting global trade rules which protect innovation, provide a level playing field, and counter the influence of non-market economies. This is why a strong presence at the WTO is vitally important. I look forward to working with Amb. Barloon and continuing to work with the Trump administration to advance a trade agenda which champions American workers, producers, and businesses." ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:32:54Z |
