Gov. Ricketts Comments on Finalization of "Phase One" China Deal
Statement
Issues: Trade
Today, Governor Pete Ricketts issued a statement following the news that President Donald J. Trump had achieved a "Phase One" agreement on trade with China.
"President Trump's relentless focus on right-sizing our trade relationship with China is critically important for Nebraska. Since 2012, China's imports from Nebraska have declined. Nebraskans would like to see more consistent trade, and a Phase One agreement creates the opportunity for that to happen. The U.S. must stay the course on addressing remaining priorities in our national interest in Phase Two."
