Central to that effort has been Penny Pritzker—our country’s first Special Representative for Ukraine’s Economic Recovery.Working with partners at home and abroad, including international financial institutions, Special Representative Pritzker has mobilized significant public and private investment to help Ukraine maintain its economy as it repels Russian forces. She’s created a first-of-its-kind model for war risk insurance that has given many companies the confidence to continue doing business in Ukraine. She has worked to reopen critical export markets for Ukrainian businesses. She has strengthened Ukraine’s defense industrial base by helping facilitate co-production ventures with U.S. companies that benefit both our nations. And, she has helped the Ukrainian government make needed economic reforms—so as it begins to rebuild, it rebuilds stronger. Like so many others, I am grateful to Special Representative Pritzker for returning to public service to share her wisdom and expertise. Her legacy of leadership and innovation is one we will carry forward as we continue to help Ukraine forge a more secure future—diplomatically, militarily, and economically.### Stay ConnectedSign UpEmail Address* RequiredZIP CodePlease leave blank.We'll be in touch with the latest information on how President Biden and his administration are working for the American people, as well as ways you can get involved and help our country build back better.
