Currency manipulation is the number one trade abuse that must be addressed. Unfortunately. this bill has become the Christmas tree of the holiday season. and it is being used to put lipstick on the pig that is our current trade negotiations. It ties our negotiators hands on even negotiating common emissions standards by restricting any consideration of climate issues. and it prevents them from negotiating immigrationrelated language as well. Further. it weakens existing trade laws designed to prevent human trafficking. The ribbon on this Christmas surprise is a totally new provision on Internet taxation that isnt even in the jurisdiction of the Committee on Ways and Means and could have unintended consequences that could bankrupt local governments.
