The Senate Finance Committee says President Obama's nominee for trade representative owes roughly $10,000 in back federal taxes and has agreed to pay them.
The report says Ron Kirk will file amended returns covering the years 2005, 2006 and 2007.
Mr. Kirk becomes the latest nominee of the Obama administration with tax problems, although this one doesn't appear severe enough to jeopardize his confirmation as U.S. Trade Representative.
