More and more Americans are waking up to the threat posed by China and our dependence on a foreign adversary for our nation’s critical supply chain needs. China’s stated goal is to achieve global dominance. Hollowing out the U.S. economy and stealing our intellectual property is a key part of their plan.
Making America more competitive and creating American jobs is a top priority. Last year, President Biden vetoed my bipartisan bill to stop China from violating our trade laws and dumping their cheap solar products – made with forced labor – in our market. Not only does this hurt American manufacturers and workers, but it also makes us more dependent on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for vital energy needs.
