Breitbart.com – Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) on Monday announced new legislation calling for the United States to revoke permanent most-favored-nation (MFN) status for China — a designation Joe Biden supported as a senator — and approve it on a yearly basis instead.
Cotton said the U.S.’s decision 20 years ago to give China permanent special trade privileges, or MFN status “supercharged the loss of American manufacturing jobs.”
Cotton said having Congress and the administration vote on it every year would give the U.S. the ability to punish China if it does something that goes against the U.S.’s interests.
