The Committee met, pursuant to notice, at 4 p.m. in room SR– 253, Russell Senate Office Building, Hon. Ted Stevens, Chairman of the Committee, presiding. OPENING STATEMENT OF HON. TED STEVENS, U.S. SENATOR FROM ALASKA The CHAIRMAN. The hearing on the nomination of Carlos Gutierrez to be the Secretary of Commerce will come to order. It’s a pleasure to have some new Members. I’ll welcome them later. We’ll begin now, and in order that Senator Levin may return, Sen- ator Inouye and I will make our statements after you make yours, Carl. I’m pleased to call the Senator from Michigan to introduce our nominee. STATEMENT OF HON. CARL LEVIN, U.S. SENATOR FROM MICHIGAN Senator LEVIN. Well, I’m very grateful for that, Senator Stevens, Senator Inouye. Senator Pryor, I see you’re in your traditional position on the Committee. We lost Senator Pryor to the Armed Services Com- mittee, where he was sitting in a very similar position; and, there- fore, we were unable to retain him. But he’ll make a terrific con- tribution to this Committee. But, Mr. Chairman, congratulations to you on your new duties here. And, Senator Inouye, it’s always great to see you. And it’s particularly a pleasure for me to be with Carlos Gutierrez here this afternoon. He is somebody that we’re very, very proud of in Michigan, as CEO and president of the Kellogg Com- pany. He has done wonderful things with that company. It’s on a very strong financial footing, for many reasons; particularly, the community that it is centralized and localized in, but also because of his leadership. His experience in running various parts of the Kellogg Company across this globe will help him to be a tremendous Secretary of Commerce. He worked, really, up from the bottom rung of the Kel- logg ladder. He came to the United States when he was 7 years old, and his first job with Kellogg’s was delivering cereal from a van, (1) VerDate 0ct 09 2002 09:43 Nov 14, 2005 Jkt 022734 PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 6633 Sfmt 6633 S:\WPSHR\GPO\DOCS\22734.TXT JACK PsN: JACKF 2 stocking the shelves, I believe, in Mexico, and working himself up from there so that, during his career with Kellogg’s, he has man- aged several international divisions, including general manager of Kellogg of Mexico, president and CEO of Kellogg Canada, president of Kellogg Asia Pacific. And this vast business experience in the United States and abroad has given him a unique understanding of our country’s role and the challenges that we face in the global marketplace. We need greater access to foreign markets; he knows that first- hand. We need to address the soaring trade deficit; he understands that firsthand. And he also, in addition to coming from mid-Amer- ica, the Heartland of America, in a mid-sized town, Battle Creek, he understands the values of mid-America and the value of hard work. He also understands some of the challenges that we face in the manufacturing sectors of America, because—Kellogg being, of course, a major manufacturer. Mr. Gutierrez also represents the quintessential American dream—as I said, emigrating

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN NAFTA Melissa Long I. INTRODUCTION HE overriding theme in the current state of NAFTA centers on whether or not renegotiation of the free trade agreement should happen in the near future. This paper will address a few of the prominent issues facing NAFTA right now. First, U.S. lawmakers and unions are currently challenging the U.S. pilot program allowing for Mex- ican trucks on U.S. highways. Second, farmers in the United States and Mexico are questioning the agreement generally, and the sugar industry of both nations is specifically concerned. The issue was discussed at the summit of North American leaders in New Orleans in April 2008. Fi- nally, this issue will examine the future of NAFTA, as it seems to be in great peril due to anti-NAFFA stances being taken by both of the demo- cratic presidential candidates in the United States.

  • Former Secretaries of Commerce Urge Congress to Pass Trade Promotion Authority
    Former Secretaries of Commerce Urge Congress to Pass Trade Promotion Authority March 25, 2015 As former Secretaries of Commerce, we strongly support Trade Promotion Authority for President Obama. From our experience, it is critically important for American businesses to access new customer markets while staying competitive in the world economy. American companies grow and succeed in the global market place through high-quality high-standard trade agreements that help our firms gain access to new overseas markets. With 95 percent of the world’s consumers living outside the United States, we must not allow opportunities to pass us by. Last year, the U.S. exported $2.34 trillion dollars of goods and services. Those exports support a total of 11.7 million American jobs at over 300,000 companies – 98 percent of which are small and medium sized businesses. These numbers are especially important as export-related jobs pay up to 18 percent more on average than non-export-related jobs. New U.S. trade agreements will generate more export opportunities for American companies, boost our economy, create jobs, and yield overall prosperity for our country. Currently the U.S. government is working on two key trade agreements that have the potential to open overseas markets for U.S. companies. Once completed, the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (T-TIP) will give the United States free trade arrangements with 65 percent of global GDP and give our businesses preferential access to a large base of new potential customers. But before we can finalize those agreements and our businesses can benefit from the new markets, Congress must pass trade promotion legislation.

  • Comparative Connections a Quarterly E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations
    Comparative Connections A Quarterly E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations U.S.-China Relations: Dialogue Boosts Ties, Even Without Results Bonnie Glaser CSIS/Pacific Forum CSIS A gaggle of Cabinet secretaries, led by U.S. Treasury Secretary Paulson, traveled to Beijing in mid-December to launch the Strategic Economic Dialogue. No breakthroughs were achieved, but both sides had low expectations for near-term results and seemed pleased with the outcome. On the North Korea nuclear front it was all bad news, with Pyongyang testing a nuclear device in early October and no tangible progress achieved at the resumption of the fifth round of Six-Party Talks after a 13-month hiatus. A positive byproduct was that intensive consultations between Washington and Beijing boosted bilateral ties. The U.S. mid-term elections that resulted in the seizure of control over both the House and Senate by the Democratic Party generated some concern in China about increased pressure on trade and human rights. On balance, however, Beijing remained confident that China-U.S. relations would remain on a positive track. Military-to-military ties continued to develop with a three-day U.S. ship visit to Zhanjiang, China, joint military exercises between the U.S. Navy and Marines and their Chinese counterparts, and a visit to China by U.S. Pacific Fleet Commander Adm. Gary Roughead. The Strategic Economic Dialogue Amid growing criticism in the U.S. of the growing U.S.-China trade imbalance, the undervaluation of China’s currency, the lack of intellectual property protection in China, and restrictions on U.S.
