I appreciated this morning's discussion with AmbassadorLighthizer about how we can create more opportunities for Washington's farmers, workers, and businesses to sell their world class products around the world through trade agreements. Ambitious trade agreements that provide access, certainty, and high-standard rules support American workers and the creation of jobs here at home. This is whyI am committed to working with the Administration to ensure successful bilateral negotiations with Japan and an updated agreement with our North American trading partners.It is my hope thattheAdministration will focus on pursuing these and new opportunities to tear down tariff and non-tariff barriers, opening up new markets to American businesses, rather than placing tariffs on U.S. imports. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
