Nominee for U.S. Trade Representative, 2021
Katherine Tai is President Biden’s nominee for United States Trade Representative. If confirmed, Tai would be the second Asian American woman to be named to a Cabinet-level position.
In 2017, Tai was appointed chief trade counsel for the United States House Committee on Ways and Means, which she has served on since 2014.
Tai helped direct the negotiations with the Trump administration on critical changes to the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement that replaced NAFTA.
