On the recordFebruary 2, 2022
The Democrats' China bill will weaken the United States on the world stage. This legislation isn't about competing with China. This bill is about appeasing China. This is a bill without teeth, and it does too little to confront the Chinese Communist Party while simultaneously curbing the success and opportunities of American job creators and workers. Contrary to my colleague's statements just now, this bill is not positive for our workforce. By further centralizing apprenticeship programs and giving unions unfair advantage over small businesses, this bill closes pathways to success for many American workers. This legislation also fails to curb the CCP's influence at our universities and workplaces. Where there should be action, Democrats promote inaction. Where there should be strength, Democrats show weakness. Where there should be security, Democrats make our country more vulnerable. This is not the America COMPETES Act. This is the America concedes act.
