“I want to congratulate Eric Hirschhorn on his confirmation as BIS Under Secretary and to thank the Senate for its work. Eric’s experience and drive will be critical to this administration’s efforts to reform America’s Cold War-era export control laws, strengthening U.S. national security and increasing the competitiveness of U.S. companies.”
