Reichert Named Customs Conferee | 2015-12-02 | 2015 | 2015-12 | Republican | House | WA | Dave Reichert | R000578 | reichert.house.gov | legacy | Washington, DC Yesterday, U.S. Congressman Dave Reichert (R-WA) was selected to serve on the conference committee for the customs reauthorization bill. In this role, Rep. Reichert will work with his colleagues from the House and Senate to finalize an agreement on legislation to facilitate trade through the modernization of our export-import processes and to strengthen the enforcement of our trade laws. This is his second appointment to a conference committee in three weeks after finishing his work yesterday on the federal transportation authorization bill that is scheduled for a vote on the House floor in the coming days. After hearing news of his appointment, Rep. Reichert made the following statement: I am honored to work with my House and Senate colleagues from both sides of the aisle to get this important legislation across the finish line. With the importance of trade to communities across the country, we must ensure that we are doing all we can to facilitate trade through updating our processes and reducing unnecessary burdens. That is exactly what this legislation will accomplish while also guaranteeing that the tools necessary to enforce our trade laws are effective. There is still work to be done, but I am confident we can finish the great work that was started by Chairmen Brady, Tiberi and Boustany. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
