Tillis Applauds Commission of Peter-Anthony Pappas to USITC

WASHINGTON, D.C. - This week, Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) issued the following statement after Peter-Anthony Pappas was sworn in as a Commissioner of the U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC): "Since 2022, Peter-Anthony Pappas has been one of my most trusted advisors, leading my Judiciary team's intellectual property efforts and helping advance bipartisan solutions on technology, antitrust, and cybersecurity. Those who have worked alongside Peter-Anthony know why he earned the nickname 'Juice.' His energy, sound judgment, and tireless work ethic have made him an indispensable member of my team. Given the trade and intellectual property matters before the USITC, I can think of no one better qualified to serve as a commissioner. "Peter-Anthony has earned the respect of colleagues on both sides of the aisle, and I am grateful to President Trump for recognizing his talents and nominating him to this important role. I also thank my Senate colleagues for confirming his nomination. While my office will certainly miss 'Juice,' I am confident he will faithfully uphold the USITC's mission and continue serving the American people with integrity and distinction." ###
