IRVINE, Cailf. (May 22, 2015) -- Today, by a vote of 62 to 37, the United States Senate passed The Congressional Trade Priorities and Accountability Act of 2015, which would renew Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) for the president. The strong bi-partisan support this legislation garnered in the Senate is a critical step towards renewing TPA which will allow U.S. negotiators to conclude trade negotiations and further expand export opportunities for fruit, vegetable, and tree nut producers.
