it is with concern that I cast my vote in favor of most favored nation status for China. Without MFN, I believe much would be lost, not only in the area of trade, but in our ability to continue to coerce China to address its labor and human rights violations. For this reason, I will be following China's progress in the coming year. If advancements are not made by China in these areas, I will be considerably less likely to vote as I did today.
