Information related to Issues concerning Congress itself.
My constituents sent me to Washington to advocate for pro-growth economic policies that will move our nation in the right direction. This is a crucial issue for businesses in the 3rd District and across America. Manufacturers are closing shop or cutting jobs because of the penalizing and unfair trade policies that impact our ability to compete in the global markets. Congress must enact pro-growth economic policies that will move the nation in the right direction. Unfair trade practices, unenforced trade policies, and burdensome regulatory barriers weaken American industries, kill jobs, and hurt consumers.
I believe that American businesses produce the finest goods and services in the world. We are second to none in the global marketplace – provided that the rules of the game are fair. Drawing from my rich experience as a small business owner working with South Korean car makers Kia and Hyundai, I am working towards practical solutions that help American businesses and workers to complete globally. Thus, I support laws that foster dynamic, vibrant businesses and laws that allow goods and services to flow freely to our valued global trade partners.
Bills I am supporting:
Free Trade Agreements: I urge the President to send all three free trade agreements with Colombia, Korea, and Panama to the Congress for immediate approval. These completed agreements have languished on the President’s desk for years. Yet while we hesitate, other countries have seized the day and put into effect their own free trade agreements with Colombia, Korea, and Panama, crippling the ability of American businesses to compete in these markets. Now is the time to open new opportunities for American businesses overseas.

I look forward to your feedback.
Thank you.
