Republican Rep. Jim Banks of Indiana has introduced a plan to end the United States free trade with China amid corporations efforts to keep the country as an asset.
Banks introduced the “Ending Normal Trade Relations with China Act” last week, legislation that would effectively end U.S. free trade with China by imposing high tariffs on Chinese imports.
“Decades ago, politicians in Washington gave Chinese manufacturers a leg up over American companies, which has been disastrous for our national security, economy and tens of thousands of Hoosier workers,” Banks said.
From Breitbart:
As a result of authorizing U.S. free trade with China, nearly four million American jobs have been eliminated from the U.S. economy from 2001 to 2018 — including almost three million domestic manufacturing jobs, as multinational corporations readily shipped jobs overseas without penalties from the government.
