Senate Confirms Froman as USTR

June 20, 2013


In a bipartisan 93-4 vote, the Senate recently confirmed White House senior economic policy advisor Michael Froman as United States Trade Representative.  The Senate confirmation followed last week’s unanimous vote of approval from the Senate Finance Committee.

The White House applauded the confirmation, saying in a statement that Froman will “continue to help open markets for American businesses, level the playing field for American workers, farmers and ranchers, and fully enforce our trade rights.”
