Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of the Fighting Trade Cheats Act of 2023, recently introduced by my friend from Illinois (Mr. Bost). As the vice chairman of the Congressional Steel Caucus and Representative from one of the largest steel-producing districts in our Nation, I know it is a necessity that we protect American workers and hold bad actors accountable for illegal trading practices. More must be done to ensure that foreign countries and companies that cheat our trade policies know that their actions will not be tolerated. Mr. Speaker, I thank Representative Bost for his leadership, and appreciate that his legislation will increase penalties for those who harm American manufacturers. Mr. Speaker, I look forward to working with my colleagues to ensure that all American workers can compete and can, no doubt, thrive when we have a level playing field in our global economy. ____________________”
