President-elect Donald Trump selected Jamieson Greer Tuesday to serve as the US trade representative in his incoming administration.
“Jamieson played a key role during my First Term in imposing Tariffs on China and others to combat unfair Trade practices, and replacing the failed NAFTA deal with USMCA, therefore making it much better for American Workers,” the president-elect wrote in his announcement.
Trump, 78, tapped Greer a day after he announced plans to sign executive orders that would impose sweeping tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China in an effort to stamp out illegal immigration and drug smuggling.
Greer served as chief of staff to the USTR Robert Lighthizer during Trump’s first term in the White House.
