During the May 13 House Ways & Means Committee hearing on the Biden administration’s trade agenda with U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai, members asked about the Administration’s support for waiving intellectual property protections for COVID-19 vaccines, enforcing labor and environmental standards in trade agreements, renewing Trade Promotion Authority (TPA), and prospects for trade agreements with the UK and EU, and in Asia. Members of both parties expressed confidence in USTR Tai, a former chief trade counsel for the Committee, and congratulated her for holding the position.
