Today, I held a town hall for the Bureau of Industry and Security.
Trade and American innovation are a key priority for this administration, and protecting our tech from foreign exploitation is fundamental.
BIS ensures our technology stays protected and serves the American people—not our adversaries.
As we expand American trade under President Trump’s America First agenda, BIS is the critical partner in making sure that growth never comes at the cost of security.
