ST. PAUL, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Ecolab applauds the passage of bipartisan legislation in the U.S. House
of Representatives to establish permanent normal trade relations (PNTR)
with Russia.
In August 2012, Russia joined the World Trade Organization (WTO), and
the passage of this legislation is vital for U.S. companies to realize
the full potential of Russia's WTO commitments.
We urge the Senate to approve this legislation, which will help ensure
that U.S. companies are on a level playing field when competing with
other global companies in this important market.
