This bill will revoke the permanent trade relations status of Communist China, an adversary to the United States. This legislation aligns with President Trump\u2019s efforts hold Communist China accountable and ensure the United States is not taken advantage of by ensuring China is treated as an adversary, not a partner. Communist China has failed to uphold its end of any deal with the United States since being granted permanent normal trade relations status \u2013 instead, using this to undermine the United States\u2019 economy, steal Americans\u2019 intellectual property, and harm our families, businesses, and national security.\n\nSenator Rick Scott said, \u201cCommunist China has long taken advantage of our open markets, stealing our technology, undermining American workers and businesses, and harming American families. It\u2019s clear China is an adversary, not a trusted partner to the United States, and they have proven that time and time again. President Trump is doing an incredible job putting America first and cracking down on Communist China\u2019s abuses, and as he works to hold Communist China accountable to its word, he must have every ounce of leverage available. My bill, the No Trade Preferences for Communist China Act, revokes Communist China\u2019s preferred trade status to send a clear message that the United States will not give privileges to nations that continuously prove they aren\u2019t worthy of them.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-03-30T11:08:25Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.rickscott.senate.gov/2025/12/sen-rick-scott-introduces-bill-to-revoke-communist-china-s-trade-privileges-and-prioritize-american-jobs"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9781250264495611, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
