Javier Palomarez, President & CEO of the USHBC, Supports Andrew Ferguson for Chair of the Federal Trade Commission

WASHINGTON DC, DC, UNITED STATES, December 11, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- President-elect Donald Trump announced that he nominates Andrew Ferguson to chair the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

Javier Palomarez, USHBC President and CEO, released the following statement:

“On behalf of the United States Hispanic Business Council, the leading advocate for America’s Hispanic business community, I support Andrew Ferguson to chair the FTC. I am eager for the immense change and business-minded policies he could bring to the agency. We emphasized and called for the need to replace Lina Khan who posed endless bureaucratic challenges and roadblocks for American businesses. I am hopeful Ferguson could help reprioritize the FTC and reel in arbitrary and harmful lawsuits. America’s globally recognized tech giants need to be allowed to pursue new technologies and services that create American jobs and facilitate the growth of our economy rather than have to face never-ending bureaucratic hurdles. Innovation and growth need to be encouraged, not stifled.”

Palomarez continued:

“I urge the United States Senate to confirm Andrew Ferguson’s nomination without delay. The time for a change at the FTC is long overdue. The lifeblood of our economy, America’s businesses, need an ally, not an adversary, in helping power our economic growth.”
