Trade: The Year That Was … And Will Be
January 3, 2008, 5:23pm
In an interview with the National Association of Manufacturers, U.S. Trade Representative Susan Schwab recapped trade news in 2007 and previewed what is on the agenda for 2008. The topics include enactment of the U.S.-Peru trade agreement.
A previous episode of NAM’s “America’s Business” vodcast included other excerpts from the groups interview with Schwab, as well as an interview with House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman John Dingell, D-Mich.
Here’s an excerpt from Dingell in reaction to Congress’ decision to include in a new energy law language to increase fuel-efficiency standards for vehicles: “It will be hard for industry to meet, but industry has supported that and has indicated it is something that they can do and will do. And so it is a meaningful stride forward.”
