WASHINGTON, April 29 (Reuters) - The U.S. textile industry expressed disappointment in a letter to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Tuesday after his remarks on not needing their sector in the United States.
"Our industry saw your remarks and were disheartened to hear this sentiment, especially since this industry has been noted by President Trump himself on a number of occasions as critical and strategic," National Council of Textile Organizations president Kimberly Glas said in the letter.
