Paper, Wood Products Manufacturers Applaud Passage of Trade Promotion Authority LegislationThursday, June 25, 2015 Press release from the issuing company WASHINGTON – American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA) President and CEO Donna Harman today issued the following statement regarding the U.S. Senate passage of Trade Promotion Authority legislation.
“International commerce is vital to the pulp, paper, packaging and wood products industry. In 2014, direct U.S. exports of forest products amounted to $31.9 billion, but our industry also benefits from exports of other goods. Paper, paperboard and wood packaging materials sold domestically are used to package and transport goods exported by other U.S. industries. Either by direct or indirect exports, our industry will benefit by opening new international markets and breaking down foreign trade barriers.
