The U.S. Senate today confirmed Jamieson Greer to serve as chief U.S. Trade Representative. In his new role, Greer will work to develop market opportunities and promote U.S. foreign trade policies.
In response to this development, Illinois farmer and National Corn Growers Association (NCGA) President Kenneth Hartman Jr. released the following statement:
“Given his experience and negotiating skills, Jamieson Greer will no doubt do an outstanding job of advancing the U.S. trade agenda. We look forward to working with Ambassador Greer as we seek to address unfair trading practices and open new markets abroad for America’s corn growers.”
