Senate Helps American Workers By Passing Customs and Trade Enforcement Bill
February 16, 2016 | Alliance for American ManufacturingEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
The Senate passed key customs enforcement legislation on Thursday that provides additional tools to combat unfair trade practices by countries like China. The bill now heads to President Obama's desk, where he is expected to sign it.
"The Senate took steps to level the playing field for American workers and manufacturers today by sending the Customs and Trade Enforcement Bill to the president’s desk.
"Countless U.S. jobs have been lost because of predatory trade practices like foreign dumping, subsidies, and other unfair practices. This bill gives U.S. companies and American workers the tools to fight back, making it easier to address trade cheating with reforms to the processes of handling allegations of trade law evasion.
"However, the bill missed the opportunity to effectively address currency manipulation. We will continue to shed manufacturing jobs until the administration and Congress take real action to fight back against currency cheats," said AAM spokesperson Jet Moody.
