What They're Saying
U.S. Senators Rob Portman (R-OH) and Sherrod Brown (D-OH)
"Further postponement of the Section 232 investigation will invite a growing deluge of steel imports into the U.S. and cause even greater damage to the U.S. steel sector.”
U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer
"The sheer scale of [China’s] coordinated efforts to develop their economy…and to distort markets in China and throughout the word is a threat to the world trading system that is unprecedented.”
Dr. James Mulvenon, General Manager, Special Programs Division, SOS International
"...the number of examples where China has successfully avoided U.S. regulatory regimes to prevent technology transfer harmful U.S. national security are increasing. The Chinese are learning our system, identifying its gaps and weaknesses, and finding new ways to exploit American technology to their advantage."
U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX)
"By exploiting gaps in the existing CFIUS review process, potential adversaries, such as China, have been effectively degrading our country’s military technological edge by acquiring, and otherwise investing in, U.S. companies."
James Lewis, Senior Vice President, Center for Strategic and International Studies
“China’s goal is to end its dependence on foreign technology and overtake the U.S., as it has overtaken other nations.”

The domestic freight railcar manufacturing/supply industry is a huge contributor to our natl and economic security. H.R. 838 supports it. Learn more. @AJOT
BREAKING: @RepMoolenaar introduces the Restoring Trade Fairness Act to revoke China’s privileged trade status.
For decades, China used preferential U.S. tariff treatment to pillage our jobs, technology & manufacturing.
With this bill we say, no more. ⬇️
While the @DeptofDefense has identified @CRRC_global as a national security threat with direct ties to the CCP, it’s still made aggressive and dangerous inroads into the U.S. rail sector. A House Oversight Committee report details the risks. https://www.nationalreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/House-Oversight-CCP-Report-10.24.24.pdf @GOPoversight
Politico Pro is reporting that House Republicans are planning to introduce legislation next year that would revoke China's permanent normal trade relations status.
It's worth noting Vice President-elect J.D. Vance sponsored legislation to do just that.
“The full implementation by @FTA_DOT of the Safe Trains Act will protect the jobs of American workers. Tens of thousands of our freight railcar manufacturers and suppliers support this effort by Senators Baldwin & Cornyn"
