United States Trade Representative

Jamieson Greer

Ambassador Jamieson Greer was confirmed by the U.S. Senate as the 20th United States Trade Representative on February 27, 2025. As a key member of President Trump’s cabinet, Ambassador Greer has made it a priority to put America First on trade by combating unfair foreign trade practices, expanding market access for Made in America products, and ensuring the United States has balance and reciprocity in its trading relationships.

Ambassador Greer returns to USTR after previously serving as Chief of Staff to Ambassador Robert Lighthizer during President Trump’s first term. In that role, he was deeply involved in the Administration’s implementation of tariffs on China and subsequent negotiation of the U.S.-China Phase One Agreement. He also was a critical part of USTR’s efforts to negotiate, and obtain congressional approval for, the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).

Outside of government service, Ambassador Greer was a partner at a Washington law firm where his practice focused on international trade and national security issues. Earlier in his career, Ambassador Greer served in the U.S. Air Force Judge Advocate General’s Corps, including a deployment to Iraq.

He received his J.D. from the University of Virginia School of Law and a joint Master in Global Business Law from l’Institut d’Etudes Politiques de Paris (Sciences Po) and l’Université de Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne. He graduated with a B.A. in International Studies from Brigham Young University.
