It was a privilege to meet with Swiss President @keller_sutter in DC. At @NFTC, we'll continue to advocate for strengthening America's economic and security relationships with close allies like Switzerland and reducing trade barriers and uncertainty.

@NFTC @MorningConsult This polling suggests that there is an opportunity for candidates to articulate a positive vision for U.S. global technology leadership -- and offer a plan to stand up for America’s businesses and workers abroad while developing closer trade and technology ties with our allies.

Today @NFTC released first-of-its-kind polling conducted by @MorningConsult that finds American voters overwhelmingly want stronger U.S. global leadership on trade, technology and AI.
Americans agree - next year brings a renewed opportunity to enhance U.S. global leadership, reinforcing our national security and advancing prosperity for all. Let's commit to keeping the U.S. at the forefront of global progress.

With former President Trump claiming at the @EconClubNY that his proposed #tariffs "will combat inflation," it's a good time to point out that tariffs raise prices, harm working families and undermine America's national and economic security.

While former President Trump claimed at the New York Economic Club that new tariffs would "combat inflation," the reality is that they are blunt instruments that raise prices, harm working families...

Tariffs do not "combat inflation." Tariffs are regressive, inflationary, discriminatory and paid by Americans. Revitalizing American manufacturing can be achieved without jeopardizing the global markets American businesses need to grow. (1/2).

Thoughtful piece from @jamescrabtree on the future trajectory of U.S. China policy and the potential for a "a downward de-risking spiral.".
Narrow de-risking measures won't provide much protection in the event of a crisis with China. Pressure for the yard to get wider & the fence to get higher will increase, making narrow de-risking politically hard to sustain. My latest in @ForeignPolicy .

Congratulations to Ian Saunders on his election as the new Secretary-General of the @WCO_OMD. This is a critical time for U.S. leadership at the WCO (and Intl Institutions more broadly). Ian is a terrific choice, and @NFTC looks forward to working with him
We were thrilled to host @CBP leadership for a conversation w/ U.S. candidate for Secretary General of the @WCO_OMD Ian Saunders last week. Ian would be a great SG & we wish him luck in the election on June 24. #IANSG

On behalf of the @NFTC, thank you to @RepDelBene & @RepLaHood, and their 46 colleagues, for their leadership. It's critical for @POTUS & @USTradeRep to push back against the discriminatory elements of the @EU_Commission's digital regulatory agenda.

@Trade_EU @VDombrovskis @SJLambrinidis @NFTC It's critical for the EU & US to recognize one another as trustworthy and reliable partners -- and for the EU to demonstrate a commitment to treat American companies and workers fairly in its laws and regulations, particularly with respect to its digital regulatory agenda.
