He joined the association 15 years ago and has been an outspoken proponent of free trade.
Prior to joining NFTC, Reinsch served in the Clinton administration as the undersecretary for export administration at the U.S. Commerce Department. Reinsch also spent 20 years on Capitol Hill from 1973 to 1993, most of them as senior legislative assistant to the late Sen. John Heinz and subsequently to Sen. John D. Rockefeller IV.
“The NFTC has been a strong voice for an open rules-based trading system and rational international tax policies, and I am honored to have been a part of that,” Reinsch said. “However, it is time for me to do something different. I don’t know what that will be, but I look forward to finding out.”
