Reichert: TPA is a Win for the American People and the American Economy

Today, U.S. Congressman Dave Reichert (WA-8) issued the following statement after the House and Senate sent the Bipartisan Congressional Trade Priorities and Accountability Act of 2015 to the White House to be signed into law:

"It is a win for the American people and the American economy that trade promotion authority (TPA) is on its way to the President's desk. With this tool in hand, we set the priorities, we hold the Administration accountable, and we guarantee our constituents a voice in any trade agreement that is negotiated. This has been something I, and my Ways and Means colleagues, have put years of work and effort into and it is exciting to see that pay off. I am also proud because this bill includes provisions I authored to ensure much deserved fairness for public safety officers."
