John Murphy: “if the United States does not make these investments, then we lose the ability to be influential”

the failure to reauthorize the Eximbank on a long-term basis is going to put at risk tens of billions of dollars of exports.

Thank you, ma'am. I just want to thank the Congress actually for Sandy supplemental funds that really enabled us to accelerate a lot of development activity that answered the call for mitigation efforts.

Historically, the only way the U.S. government has ever enticed a foreign government to open its market to American exports is by negotiating free trade agreements.

the choice is not one between Eximbank on the one hand and the perfection of free markets on the other.
