Education and Labor Committee Republican Leader Virginia Foxx (R-NC) issued the following statement after the House passed H.R. 4521, the so-called America Competes Act, which emboldens the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) at the expense of American job creators, workers, and students:
“With today’s passage of the so-called America Competes Act - more aptly described as the America Concedes Act - House Democrats proved what we knew to be true all along: they are perfectly content with bending the knee to the will of the Chinese Communist Party.
“From burdensome Davis-Bacon provisions to the creation of a data system that tracks every college student in America through their adult lives without their consent, this 2,900-page bill is a belated Christmas gift to the far left and the CCP. House Democrats are fooling themselves if they believe this bill will sharpen America’s competitive edge against the CCP - if anything, it only dulls the blade."
