Even if you oppose the EU aviation requirements, the Thune bill makes no sense. It's unnecessary and it's counterproductive, as the European Union just agreed to delay the requirements targeted by the bill. It also risks taxpayer dollars, threatens to provoke an international trade war, and jeopardizes U.S. national security. I urge my colleagues to oppose this unnecessary and misguided bill.

But yesterday Takata responded that, quote, 'the currently available reliable information does not support a nationwide determination of a safety defect,' end quote.
Our legislation improves the early warning reporting system by making more reported information public and ensuring that NHTSA receives significantly more information for manufacturers on any fatal incident involving a safety defect.
I hope this committee will initiate a detailed investigation examining this network of front groups and trade associations, determine who funds them and expose how they coordinate with industry.
Well, the confusing, contrary, uncertain, and sometimes purely nonsensical information that comes from Takata is confusing to drivers.
