President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly considering Jeffrey Kessler, a Washington trade lawyer, for the position of head of the Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), a critical role in the U.S.-China technology tensions. Kessler, who previously served as assistant secretary for enforcement during Trump's first term, would manage export controls on sensitive U.S. technology sold to nations like China. His background includes extensive experience in navigating trade barriers and regulatory compliance related to U.S.-China trade, making him a key figure in the ongoing tech battle between the two countries.
