Katherine Tai, a critic of China’s trade practices, was confirmed Wednesday as the Biden administration’s top trade official. The Senate vote was 98-0.
If confirmed, Tai would become the first Asian American woman and the first woman of color to be the U.S. Trade Representative since the position was created nearly 60 years ago. She received unanimous support on Tuesday from an evenly split Senate in a procedural vote clearing her way for confirmation.
Tai’s expected confirmation comes as the Biden White House attempts to move away from the Trump administration’s more belligerent tone in dealing with China, while maintaining a tough U.S. stance against its rival economic superpower.
