Jim Inhofe: “Trade with China is critical to North Korea, and comprises more than 70 percent of the North Korean economy.”

Senators Vitter, Crapo, Alexander, and I sent a letter to Senator Lautenberg yesterday expressing our disappointment that Republicans' sincere effort to work on a bipartisan TSCA reform had been rebuffed.

We have peer competitors in cyberspace and some of them have already hinted that they hold the power to cripple our infrastructure and set back our standard of living if they choose.

Yes, I think it has.

It is imperative that any TSCA modernization efforts be bipartisan, based on sound science, protective of public health, and continue to allow American industry to lead the world through responsible innovation.
