President Donald Trump’s nominee for the next U.S. trade representative, Jamieson Greer, is set to face the Senate Finance Committee this Thursday. Greer, who previously served as the chief of staff to the trade representative during Trump’s first term, was praised by the president for his role in implementing tariffs, including those on China and the trade agreement with Canada and Mexico.
As a lawyer and Air Force Judge Advocate General’s Corps veteran with experience in Iraq, Greer's potential role as U.S. trade representative would involve negotiating trade deals and resolving disputes with foreign governments and international trade bodies like the World Trade Organization.
