The petition reached the minimum number of signatures, 218, to force a vote on the Banks reauthorization. When Washington State businesses operate on a level playing field with foreign businesses, they win, and hundreds of thousands of good paying jobs are created here in our state, said Congressman Reichert. But when Congress failed to reauthorize the Export-Import Bank this past summer, we put over 230 of our states exporters that have relied on Ex-Im and the jobs they support here at home at risk. Too much is on the line, which is why I joined my colleagues in taking this step to force action on this critical resource for our nations job creators." ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
