Congress Sends Chairman Smith's Taiwan Trade Bill to President for Signature

Press Release

"Congress is focused on ensuring trade agreements are in the best interest of American workers, families, farmers, and small businesses. Thank you to Senators Wyden and Crapo and Ranking Member Neal for partnering to stand up for Congress' constitutional authority over trade. A bipartisan coalition in the House and Senate came together to send the message that the responsibility for trade policy rests, as defined by the Constitution, with the branch closest to the people. As China continues to threaten American interests, Taiwan has maintained a close trade relationship with America. This legislation strengthens that relationship with this vital ally and ensures the American people have a powerful voice, through their representatives, in future trade negotiations. President Biden should sign this legislation into law without delay."
