The goodwill of the American people has been abused. When you look at the theft of intellectual property, I just mentioned the police stations, something that is anathema to American society. But I believe this goes back to when...
most favored nation status was given to communist China. And that's why I've introduced legislation with Representative Smith from New Jersey to revoke that permanent status
and have it be renewed annually. I believe we will get much greater accountability by the Communist Chinese government if they have to be good actors on and have this renewed on an annual basis. I think this is one of the most important things that we can do because America is the marketplace that China was trying to get to. We have the largest consumer base
And that has led to prosperity for China over the last few decades. I believe they should respect that. They have not. And one way in which we can deal with this is to have an annual renewal for favored nation status.
