following findings3 7#a7 ,the ,people's ,republic of ,china 7,,prc7 is leveraging its political1 diplomatic1 economic1 military1 technological1 and ideological power to become a strategic1 near-peer1 global competitor of the ,united ,states4 ,the policies increasingly pursued by the ,,prc in these domains are contrary to the interests and values of the ,united ,states1 its partners1 and much of the rest of the world4 7#b7 ,the current policies being pursued by the ,,prc-- 7,a7 threaten the future character of the international order and are shaping the rules1 norms1 and institutions that govern relations among states2 7,b7 will put at risk the ability of the ,united ,states to secure its national interests2 and 7,c7 will put at risk the future peace1 prosperity1 and freedom of the international community in the coming decades4 7#c7 ,after normalizing diplomatic relations with the ,,prc in #aigi1 the ,united ,states actively worked to advance the ,,prc's economic and social development to ensure that the ,,prc participated in1 and benefitted from1 the free and open international order4 ,the ,united ,states pursued these goals and contributed to the welfare of the ,chinese people by-- 7,a7 increasing the ,,prc's trade relations and access to global capital markets2 7,b7 promoting the ,,prc's accession to the ,world ,trade ,organization2 7,c7 providing development finance and technical assistance2 7,d7 promoting research collaboration2 7,e7 educating the ,,prc's top students2 7,f7 permitting transfers of cutting-edge technologies and scientific knowledge2 and 7,g7 providing intelligence and military assistance4 7#d7 ,it is now clear that the ,,prc has chosen to pursue state-led1 mercantilist economic policies1 an increasingly authoritarian governance model at home through increased restrictions on personal freedoms1 and an aggressive and assertive foreign policy4 ,these policies frequently and deliberately undermine ,united ,states interests and are contrary to core ,united ,states values and the values of other nations1 both in the ,indo-,pacific and beyond4 ,in response to this strategic decision of the ,chinese ,communist ,party 7,,ccp71 the ,united ,states has been compelled to reexamine and revise its strategy towards the ,,prc4 7#e7 ,the ,general ,secretary of the ,,ccp and the ,president of the ,,prc1 ,xi ,jinping1 has elevated the ,great ,rejuvenation of the ,chinese ,nation as central to the domestic and foreign policy of the ,,prc4 ,his program demands-- 7,a7 strong1 centralized ,,ccp leadership2 7,b7 concentration of military power2 7,c7 a strong role for the ,,ccp in the state and the economy2 7,d7 an aggressive foreign policy seeking control over broadly asserted territorial claims2 and 7,e7 the denial of any values and individual rights that are deemed to threaten the ,,ccp4 7#f7 ,the ,,prc views its ,leninist model of governance1 socialism with ,chinese characteristics1 as superior to1 and at odds with1 the constitutional models of the ,united ,states and other democracies4 ,this approach to governance is lauded by the ,,ccp as essential to securing the ,,prc's status as a global leader1 and to shaping the future of the world4 ,in a #bjac speech1 ,president ,xi said1 ,we firmly believe that as socialism with ,chinese characteristics develops further ''' it is ''' inevitable that the superiority of our socialist system will be increasingly apparent ''' and our country's road of development will have increasingly greater influence on the world44 7#g7 ,the ,,prc's objectives are to first establish regional hegemony over the ,indo-,pacific and then to use that dominant position to propel the ,,prc to become the leading world power1 shaping an international order that is conducive to the ,,ccp's interests4 ,achieving these objectives require turning the ,,prc into a wealthy nation under strict ,,ccp rule and using a strong military and advanced technological capability to pursue the ,,prc's objectives1 regardless of other countries' interests4 7#h7 ,the ,,prc is reshaping the current international order1 which is built upon the rule of law and free and open ideals and principles1 by conducting global information and influence operations1 seeking to redefine international laws and norms to align with the objectives of the ,,ccp1 rejecting the legitimacy of internationally recognized human rights1 and seeking to co-opt the leadership and agenda of multinational organizations for the benefit of the ,,prc and other authoritarian regimes at the expense of the interests of the ,united ,states and the international community4 ,in ,december #bjah1 ,president ,xi suggested that the ,,ccp views its historic mission as not only to govern ,china1 but also to profoundly influence global governance to benefit the ,,ccp4 7#i7 ,the ,,prc is encouraging other countries to follow its model of socialism with ,chinese characteristics4 ,during the #aith ,party ,congress in #bjag1 ,president ,xi said that the ,,prc could serve as a model of development for other countries by utilizing ,chinese wisdom and a ,chinese approach to solving problems4 7#aj7 ,the ,,prc is promoting its governance model and attempting to weaken other models of governance by-- 7,a7 undermining democratic institutions2 7,b7 subverting financial institutions2 7,c7 coercing businesses to accommodate the policies of the ,,prc2 and 7,d7 using disinformation to disguise the nature of the actions described in subparagraphs 7,a7 through 7,c74 7#aa7 ,the ,,prc is close to its goal of becoming the global leader in science and technology4 ,in ,may #bjah1 ,president ,xi said that for the ,,prc to reach prosperity and rejuvenation1 it needs to endeavor to be a major world center for science and innovation4 ,the ,,prc has invested the equivalent of billions of dollars into education and research and development1 and has established joint scientific research centers and science universities4 7#ab7 ,the ,,prc's drive to become a manufacturing and technological superpower and to promote innovation with ,chinese characteristics is coming at the expense of human rights and longstanding international rules and norms with respect to economic competition1 and presents a challenge to ,united ,states national security and the security of allies and like-minded countries4 ,in particular1 the ,,prc advances its illiberal political and social policies through mass surveillance1 social credit systems1 and a significant role of the state in internet governance4 ,through these means1 the ,,prc increases direct and indirect government control over its citizens' everyday lives4 ,its national strategy of ,military-,civil ,fusion mandates that civil and commercial research1 which increasingly drives global innovation1 is leveraged to develop new military capabilities4 7#ac7 ,the ,,prc and the ,,ccp are committing crimes against humanity and are engaged in an ongoing genocide1 in violation of the ,convention on the ,prevention and ,punishment of the ,crime of ,genocide1 done at ,paris ,december #i1 #aidh1 against the predominantly ,muslim ,uyghurs and other ethnic and religious minority groups in the ,xinjiang ,uyghur ,autonomous ,region1 including through campaigns of imprisonment1 torture1 rape1 and coercive birth prevention policies4 7#ad7 ,the ,,prc is using legal and illegal means to achieve its objective of becoming a manufacturing and technological superpower4 ,the ,,prc uses state-directed industrial policies in anticompetitive ways to ensure the dominance of ,,prc companies4 ,the ,,ccp engages in and encourages actions that actively undermine a free and open international market1 such as intellectual property theft1 forced technology transfers1 regulatory and financial subsidies1 and mandatory ,,ccp access to proprietary data as part of business and commercial agreements between ,chinese and foreign companies4 7#ae7 ,the policies referred to in paragraph 7#ad7 are designed to freeze ,united ,states and other foreign firms out of the ,,prc market1 while eroding competition in other important markets4 ,the heavy subsidization of ,chinese companies includes potential violation of its ,world ,trade ,organization commitments4 ,in ,may #bjah1 ,president ,xi said that the ,,prc aims to keep the initiatives of innovation and development security ''' in ,china's own hands4 7#af7 ,the ,,prc is advancing its global objectives through a variety of avenues1 including its signature initiative1 the ,belt and ,road ,initiative 7,,bri71 which is enshrined in the ,chinese ,constitution and includes the ,digital ,silk ,road and ,health ,silk ,road4 ,the ,,prc describes ,,bri as a straightforward and wholly beneficial plan for all countries4 ,however1 it eventually seeks to advance an economic system with the ,,prc at its center1 making it the most concrete geographical representation of the ,,prc's global ambitions4 ,,bri increases the economic influence of state-owned ,chinese firms in global markets1 enhances the ,,prc's political leverage with government leaders around the world1 and provides greater access to strategic nodes such as ports and railways4 ,through ,,bri1 the ,,prc seeks political deference through economic dependence4 7#ag7 ,the ,,prc is executing a plan to establish regional hegemony over the ,indo-,pacific and displace the ,united ,states from the region4 ,as a ,pacific power1 the ,united ,states has built and supported enduring alliances and economic partnerships that secure peace and prosperity and promote the rule of law and political pluralism in a free and open ,indo-,pacific4 ,in contrast1 the ,,prc uses economic and military coercion in the region to secure its own interests4 7#ah7 ,the ,,prc's military strategy seeks to keep the ,united ,states military from operating in the ,western ,pacific and to erode ,united ,states security guarantees4 7#ai7 ,the ,,prc is aggressively pursuing exclusive control of critical land routes1 sea lanes1 and air space in the ,indo-,pacific in the hopes of eventually exercising greater influence beyond the region4 ,this includes lanes crucial to commercial activity1 energy exploration1 transport1 and the exercise of security operations in areas permitted under international law4 7#bj7 ,the ,,prc seeks so-called reunification with ,taiwan through whatever means may ultimately be required4 ,the ,,ccp's insistence that so-called reunification is ,taiwan's only option makes this goal inherently coercive4 ,in ,january #bjai1 ,president ,xi stated that the ,,prc makes no promise to renounce the use of force and reserves the option of taking all necessary means4 ,taiwan's embodiment of democratic values and economic liberalism challenges ,president ,xi's goal of achieving national rejuvenation4 ,the ,,prc plans to exploit ,taiwan's dominant strategic position in the ,first ,island ,chain and to project power into the ,second ,island ,chain and beyond4 7#ba7 ,in the ,south ,china ,sea1 the ,,prc has executed an illegal island-building campaign that threatens freedom of navigation and the free-flow of commerce1 damages the environment1 bolsters ,,pla power projection capabilities1 and coerces and intimidates other regional claimants in an effort to advance its unlawful claims and control the waters around neighboring countries4 ,despite ,president ,xi's ,september #bjae speech1 in which he said the ,,prc did not intend to militarize the ,south ,china ,sea1 during the #bjag #aith ,party ,congress1 ,president ,xi announced that construction on islands and reefs in the ,south ,china ,sea have seen steady progress4 7#bb7 ,the ,,prc is rapidly modernizing the ,,pla to attain a level of capacity and capability superior to the ,united ,states in terms of equipment and conduct of modern military operations by shifting its military doctrine from having a force adequate for ,china's defensive needs to having a force commensurate with ,china's international status4 ,ultimately1 this transformation could enable ,china to impose its will in the ,indo-,pacific region through the threat of military force4 ,in #bjag1 ,president ,xi established the following developmental benchmarks for the advancement of the ,,pla3 7,a7 ,a mechanized force with increased informatized and strategic capabilities by #bjbj4 7,b7 ,the complete modernization of ,china's national defense by #bjce4 7,c7 ,the full transformation of the ,,pla into a world-class force by #bjej4 7#bc7 ,the ,,prc's strategy and supporting policies described in this section undermine ,united ,states interests1 such as-- 7,a7 upholding a free and open

defense of its allies2 7,e7 preserving open sea and air lanes2 7,f7 fostering the free flow of commerce through open and transparent markets2 and 7,g7 promoting individual freedom and human rights4 7#bd7 ,the global ,,covid-#ai pandemic has intensified and accelerated these trends in the ,,prc's behavior and therefore increased the need for ,united ,states global leadership and a competitive posture4 ,the ,,prc has capitalized on the world's focus on the ,,covid-#ai pandemic by-- 7,a7 moving rapidly to undermine ,hong ,kong's autonomy1 including imposing a so-called national security law on ,hong ,kong2 7,b7 aggressively imposing its will in the ,east and ,south ,china ,seas2 7,c7 contributing to increased tensions with ,india2 and 7,d7 engaging in a widespread and government-directed disinformation campaign to obscure the ,,prc government's efforts to cover up the seriousness of ,,covid-#ai1 sow confusion about the origination of the outbreak1 and discredit the ,united ,states1 its allies1 and global health efforts4 7#be7 ,the ,,ccp's disinformation campaign referred to in paragraph 7#bd77;,d7 has included-- 7,a7 concerted efforts1 in the early days of the pandemic1 to downplay the nature and scope of the outbreak in ,wuhan in the ,,prc1 as well as cases of person-to-person transmission2 7,b7 claims that the virus originated in ,united ,states biological defense research at ,fort ,detrick1 ,maryland2 7,c7 ,chinese state media reports insinuating a possible link between the virus and other ,united ,states biological facilities2 and 7,d7 efforts to block access to qualified international infectious disease experts who might contradict the ,,ccp's narrative4 7#bf7 ,in response to the ,,prc's strategy and policies1 the ,united ,states must adopt a policy of strategic competition with the ,,prc to protect and promote our vital interests and values4 7#bg7 ,the ,united ,states' policy of strategic competition with respect to the ,,prc is part of a broader

7,b7 does not include self-described militias or paramilitary organizations4 #cbbb4 ,findings ,congress makes the following findings3 7#a7 ,the ,people's ,republic of ,china aims to use its growing military might in concert with other instruments of its national power to displace the ,united ,states in the ,indo-,pacific and establish hegemony over the region4 7#b7 ,the military balance of power in the ,indo-,pacific region is growing increasingly unfavorable to the ,united ,states because-- 7,a7 the ,,prc is rapidly modernizing and expanding the capabilities of the ,,pla to project power and create contested areas across the entire ,indo-,pacific region2 7,b7 ,,pla modernization has largely focused on areas where it possesses operational advantages and can exploit weaknesses in the ,united ,states suite of capabilities2 and 7,c7 current ,united ,states force structure and presence do not sufficiently counter threats in the ,indo-,pacific1 as ,united ,states allies1 bases1 and forces at sea in the ,indo-,pacific region are concentrated in large bases that are highly vulnerable to the ,,prc's strike capabilities4 7#c7 ,this shift in the regional military balance and erosion of conventional and strategic deterrence in the ,indo-,pacific region-- 7,a7 presents a substantial and imminent risk to the security of the ,united ,states2 and 7,b7 left unchecked1 could-- 7i7 embolden the ,,prc to take actions1 including the use of military force1 to change the status quo before the ,united ,states can mount an effective response2 and 7ii7 alter the nuclear balance in the ,indo-,pacific4 7#d7 ,the ,,prc sees an opportunity to diminish confidence among ,united ,states allies and partners in the strength of ,united ,states commitments1 even to the extent that these nations feel compelled to bandwagon with the ,,prc to protect their interests4 ,the ,,prc is closely monitoring the ,united ,states reaction to ,,prc pressure and coercion of ,united ,states allies1 searching for indicators of ,united ,states resolve4 7#e7 ,achieving so-called reunification of ,taiwan to mainland ,china is a key step for the ,,prc to achieve its regional hegemonic ambitions4 ,the ,,prc has increased the frequency and scope of its exercises and operations targeting ,taiwan1 such as amphibious assault and live-fire exercises in the ,taiwan ,strait1 ,,pla ,air ,force flights that encircle ,taiwan1 and flights across the unofficial median line in the ,taiwan ,strait4 ,the ,government of the ,,prc's full submission of ,hong ,kong potentially accelerates the timeline of a ,taiwan scenario1 and makes the defense of ,taiwan an even more urgent priority4 7#f7 ,the defense of ,taiwan is critical to-- 7,a7 defending the people of ,taiwan2 7,b7 limiting the ,,pla's ability to project power beyond the ,first ,island ,chain1 including to ,united ,states territory1 such as ,guam and ,hawaii2 7,c7 defending the territorial integrity of ,japan2 7,d7 preventing the ,,pla from diverting military planning1 resources1 and personnel to broader military ambitions2 and 7,e7 retaining the ,united ,states credibility as a defender of the democratic values and free-market principles embodied by ,taiwan's people and government2 7#g7 ,the ,,prc capitalized on the world's attention to ,,covid-#ai to advance its military objectives in the ,south ,china ,sea1 intensifying and accelerating trends already underway4 ,the ,,prc has sent militarized survey vessels into the ,malaysian ,exclusive ,economic ,zone1 announced the establishment of an administrative district in the ,spratly and ,paracel ,islands under the ,chinese local government of ,sansha1 aimed a fire control radar at a ,philippine navy ship1 encroached on ,indonesia's fishing grounds1 sunk a ,vietnamese fishing boat1 announced new research stations on ,fiery ,cross ,reef and ,subi ,reef1 landed special military aircraft on ,fiery ,cross ,reef to routinize such deployments1 and sent a flotilla of over #bjj militia vessels to ,whitsun ,reef1 a feature within the exclusive economic zone of the ,philippines4 7#h7 ,on ,july #ac1 #bjbj1 the ,department of ,state clarified ,united ,states policy on the ,south ,china ,sea and stated that ,beijing's claims to offshore resources across most of the ,south ,china ,sea are completely unlawful4 7#i7 ,these actions in the ,south ,china ,sea enable the ,,pla to exert influence and project power deeper into ,oceania and the ,indian ,ocean4 ,as ,admiral ,phil ,davidson1 ,commander of ,indo-,pacific ,command1 testified in #bjai1 ,in short1 ,china is now capable of controlling the ,south ,china ,sea in all scenarios short of war with the ,united ,states44 7#aj7 ,the ,,pla also continues to advance its claims in the ,east ,china ,sea1 including through a high number of surface combatant patrols and frequent entry into the territorial waters of the ,senkaku ,islands1 over which the ,united ,states recognizes ,japan's administrative control4 ,in ,april #bjad1 ,president ,barack ,obama stated1 ,our commitment to ,japan's security is absolute and article five of the ,u4,s4-,japan security treaty covers all territory under ,japan's administration1 including the ,senkaku islands44 7#aa7 ,on ,march #a1 #bjai1 ,secretary of ,state ,michael ,r4 ,pompeo stated1 ,as the ,south ,china ,sea is part of the ,pacific1 any armed attack on ,philippine forces1 aircraft1 or public vessels in the ,south ,china ,sea will trigger mutual defense obligations under ,article #d of our ,mutual ,defense ,treaty44 7#ab7 ,the ,,pla also continues to advance its influence over the ,korean ,peninsula1 including through a series of joint air exercises with the ,russian ,federation in the ,republic of ,korea's ,air ,defense ,identification ,zone4 7#ac7 ,the ,,pla is modernizing and gaining critical capability in every branch and every domain1 including-- 7,a7 positioning the ,,pla ,navy to become a great maritime power or blue-water navy that can completely control all activity within the ,first ,island ,chain and project power beyond it with a fleet of #dbe battle force ships by #bjcj2 7,b7 increasing the size and range of its strike capabilities1 including approximately #a1ijj ground-launched short- and intermediate-range missiles capable of targeting ,united ,states allies and partners in the ,first and ,second ,island chains1 ,united ,states bases in the ,indo-,pacific1 and ,united ,states forces at sea2 7,c7 boosting capabilities for air warfare1 including with ,russian-origin ,su-#ce fighters and ,s-#djj air defense systems1 new ,j-#bj #eth generation stealth fighters1 advanced ,h-#f bomber variants1 a long-range stealth bomber1 and ,y-#bj heavy lift aircraft2 7,d7 making critical investments in new domains of warfare1 such as cyber warfare1 electronic warfare1 and space warfare2 and 7,e7 increasing the size of its nuclear stockpile and delivery systems4 7#ad7 ,the ,,prc is pursuing this modernization through all means at its disposal1 including its ,military-,civil ,fusion initiative1 which enlists the whole of ,,prc society in developing and acquiring technology with military applications to pursue technological advantage over the ,united ,states in artificial intelligence1 hypersonic glide vehicles1 directed energy weapons1 electromagnetic railguns1 counter-space weapons1 and other emerging capabilities4 7#ae7 ,the ,united ,states lead in the development of science and technology relevant to defense is eroding in the face of competition from the ,,prc4 ,united ,states research and development spending on defense capabilities has declined sharply as a share of global research and development4 ,the commercial sector's leading role in innovation presents certain unique challenges to the ,department of ,defense's reliance on technology for battlefield advantage4 7#af7 ,the ,,prc has vastly increased domestic research and development expenditures1 supported the growth of new cutting-edge industries and tapped into a large workforce to invest in fostering science and engineering talent4 7#ag7 ,the ,,prc is increasing exports of defense and security capabilities to build its defense technology and industrial base and improve its own military capabilities1 as well as its influence with countries that purchase and become dependent on its military systems4 #cbbc4 ,sense of ,congress regarding bolstering security partnerships in the ,indo-,pacific ,it is the sense of ,congress that steps to bolster ,united ,states security partnerships in the ,indo-,pacific

,congress ,it is the sense of ,congress that-- 7#a7 many countries of the ,oceania region depend on commercial tuna fisheries as a critical component of their economies2 7#b7 the ,government of the

unreported1 and unregulated fishing 7in this section referred to as ,,iuu fishing7 activities2 7#c7 the sustainability of ,oceania's fisheries is threatened by ,,iuu fishing1 which depletes both commercially important fish stocks and non-targeted species that help maintain the integrity of the ocean ecosystem2 7#d7 in addition1 ,,iuu fishing puts pressure on protected species of marine mammals1 sea turtles1 and sea birds1 which also jeopardizes the integrity of the ocean ecosystem2 7#e7 further1 because ,,iuu fishing goes unrecorded1 the loss of biomass compromises scientists' work to assess and model fishery stocks and advise managers on sustainable catch levels2 7#f7 beyond the damage to living marine resources1 ,,iuu fishing also contributes directly to illegal activity in the ,oceania region1 such as food fraud1 smuggling1 and human trafficking2 7#g7 current approaches to ,,iuu fishing enforcement rely on established methods1 such as vessel monitoring systems1 logbooks maintained by government fisheries enforcement authorities to record the catches landed by fishing vessels1 and corroborating data on catches hand-collected by human observer programs2 7#h7 such established methods are imperfect because-- 7,a7 vessels can turn off monitoring systems and unlicensed vessels do not use them2 and 7,b7 observer coverage is thin and subject to human error and corruption2 7#i7 maritime domain awareness technology solutions for vessel monitoring have gained credibility in recent years and include systems such as observing instruments deployed on satellites1 crewed and uncrewed air and surface systems1 aircraft1 and surface vessels1 as well as electronic monitoring systems on fishing vessels2 7#aj7 maritime domain awareness technologies hold the promise of significantly augmenting the current ,,iuu fishing enforcement capacities2 and 7#aa7 maritime domain awareness technologies offer an avenue for addressing key ,united ,states national interests1

,investing in our economic statecraft #cdja4 ,findings and sense of ,congress regarding the ,,prc's industrial policy 7a7 ,findings ,congress makes the following findings3 7#a7 ,the ,people's ,republic of ,china1 at the direction of the ,chinese ,communist ,party1 is advancing an ecosystem of anticompetitive economic and industrial policies that-- 7,a7 distort global markets2 7,b7 limit innovation2 7,c7 unfairly advantage ,,prc firms at the expense of the ,united ,states and other foreign firms2 and 7,d7 unfairly and harmfully prejudice consumer choice4 7#b7 ,of the extensive and systemic economic and industrial policies pursued by the ,,prc1 the mass subsidization of ,,prc firms1 intellectual property theft1 and forced technology transfer are among the most damaging to the global economy4 7#c7 ,through regulatory interventions and direct financial subsidies1 the ,,ccp1 for the purposes of advancing national political and economic objectives1 directs1 coerces1 and influences in anti-competitive ways the commercial activities of firms that are directed1 financed1 influenced1 or otherwise controlled by the state1 including state-owned enterprises1 and ostensibly independent and private ,chinese companies1 such as technology firms in strategic sectors4 7#d7 ,the ,,prc ,government1 at the national and subnational levels1 grants special privileges or status to certain ,,prc firms in key sectors designated as strategic1 such as telecommunications1 oil1 power1 aviation1 banking1 and semiconductors4 ,enterprises receive special state preferences in the form of favorable loans1 tax exemptions1 and preferential land access from the ,,ccp4 7#e7 ,the subsidization of ,,prc companies1 as described in paragraphs 7#c7 and 7#d7-- 7,a7 enables these companies to sell goods below market prices1 allowing them to outbid and crowd out market-based competitors and thereby pursue global dominance of key sectors2 7,b7 distorts the global market economy by undermining longstanding and generally accepted market-based principles of fair competition1 leading to barriers to entry and forced exit from the market for foreign or private firms1 not only in the ,,prc1 but in markets around the world2 7,c7 creates government-sponsored or supported de facto monopolies1 cartels1 and other anti-market arrangements in key sectors1 limiting or removing opportunities for other firms2 and 7,d7 leads to1 as a result of the issues described in paragraphs 7,a7 through 7,c71 declines in profits and revenue needed by foreign and private firms for research and development4 7#f7 ,the ,,ccp incentivizes and empowers ,,prc actors to steal critical technologies and trade secrets from private and foreign competitors operating in the ,,prc and around the world1 particularly in areas that the ,,ccp has identified as critical to advancing ,,prc objectives4 ,the ,,prc1 as directed by the ,,ccp1 also continues to implement anti-competitive regulations1 policies1 and practices that coerce the handover of technology and other propriety or sensitive data from foreign enterprises to domestic firms in exchange for access to the ,,prc market4 7#g7 ,companies in the ,united ,states and in foreign countries compete with state-subsidized ,,prc companies that enjoy the protection and power of the state in third-country markets around the world4 ,the advantages granted to ,,prc firms1 combined with significant restrictions to accessing the ,,prc market itself1 severely hamper the ability of ,united ,states and foreign firms to compete1 innovate1 and pursue the provision of best value to customers4 ,the result is an unbalanced playing field4 ,such an unsustainable course1 if not checked1 will over time lead to depressed competition around the world1 reduced opportunity1 and harm to both producers and consumers4 7#h7 ,as stated in the ,united ,states ,trade ,representative's investigation of the ,,prc's trade practices under section #cja of the ,trade ,act of #aigd 7#ai ,u4,s4,c4 #bdaa71 conducted in ,march #bjah1 ,when ,u4,s4 companies are deprived of fair returns on their investment in ,,ip1 they are unable to achieve the growth necessary to reinvest in innovation4 ,in this sense1 ,china's technology transfer regime directly burdens the innovation ecosystem that is an engine of economic growth in the ,united ,states and similarly-situated economies44 7#i7 ,in addition to forced technology transfers described in this subsection1 the ,united ,states ,trade ,representative's investigation of the ,,prc under section #cja of the ,trade ,act of #aigd 7#ai ,u4,s4,c4 #bdaa7 also identified requirements that foreign firms license products at less than market value1 government-directed and government-subsidized acquisition of sensitive technology for strategic purposes1 and cyber theft as other key ,,prc technology and industrial policies that are unreasonable and discriminatory4 ,these policies place at risk ,united ,states intellectual property rights1 innovation and technological development1 and jobs in dozens of industries4 7#aj7 ,other elements of the ,,prc's ecosystem of industrial policies that harm innovation and distort global markets include-- 7,a7 advancement of policies that encourage local production over imports2 7,b7 continuation of policies that favor unique technical standards in use by ,,prc firms rather than globally accepted standards1 which often force foreign firms to alter their products and manufacturing chains to compete2 7,c7 requirements that foreign companies disclose proprietary information to qualify for the adoption of their standards for use in the ,,prc domestic market2 and 7,d7 maintenance of closed procurement processes1 which limit participation by foreign firms1 including by setting terms that require such firms to use domestic suppliers1 transfer know-how to firms in the ,,prc1 and disclose proprietary information4 7#aa7 ,the ,belt and ,road ,initiative 7,,bri7 and associated industry-specific efforts under this initiative1 such as the ,digital ,silk ,road1 are key vectors to advance the ,,prc's mercantilist policies and practices globally4 ,the resulting challenges do not only affect ,united ,states firms4 ,as the ,european ,chamber of ,commerce reported in a ,january #bjbj report1 the combination of concessional lending to ,,prc state-owned enterprises1 nontransparent procurement and bidding processes1 closed digital standards1 and other factors severely limit ,european and other participation in ,,bri and make competition with ,,prc companies in third-country markets extremely challenging4 ,this underscores a key objective of ,,bri1 which is to ensure the reliance of infrastructure1 digital technologies1 and other important goods on ,,prc supply chains and technical standards4 7#ab7 ,on ,january #i1 #bjba1 the ,ministry of ,commerce of the ,,prc issued ,order ,no4 #a of #bjba1 entitled ,rules on ,counteracting ,unjustified ,extraterritorial ,application of ,foreign ,legislation and other ,measures1 which establishes a blocking regime in response to foreign sanctions on ,chinese individuals and entities4 ,that order allows the ,government of the ,,prc to designate specific foreign laws as unjustified extraterritorial application of foreign legislation and to prohibit compliance with such foreign laws4 7b7 ,sense of congress ,it is the sense of ,congress that-- 7#a7 the challenges presented by a nonmarket economy like the ,,prc's economy1 which has captured such a large share of global economic exchange1 are in many ways unprecedented and require sufficiently elevated and sustained long-term focus and engagement2 7#b7 in order to truly address the most detrimental aspects of ,,ccp-directed mercantilist economic strategy1 the ,united ,states must adopt policies that-- 7,a7 expose the full scope and scale of intellectual property theft and mass subsidization of ,chinese firms1 and the resulting harm to the ,united ,states1 foreign markets1 and the global economy2 7,b7 ensure that ,,prc companies face costs and consequences for anticompetitive behavior2 7,c7 provide options for affected ,united ,states persons to address and respond to unreasonable and discriminatory ,,ccp-directed industrial policies2 and 7,d7 strengthen the protection of critical technology and sensitive data1 while still fostering an environment that provides incentives for innovation and competition2 7#c7 the ,united ,states must work with its allies and partners through the ,organization for ,economic ,cooperation and ,development 7,,oecd71 the ,world ,trade ,organization1 and other venues and fora-- 7,a7 to reinforce long-standing generally accepted principles of fair competition and market behavior and address the ,,prc's anticompetitive economic and industrial policies that undermine decades of global growth and innovation2 7,b7 to ensure that the ,,prc is not granted the same treatment as that of a free-market economy until it ceases the implementation of laws1 regulations1 policies1 and practices that provide unfair advantage to ,,prc firms in furtherance of national objectives and impose unreasonable1 discriminatory1 and illegal burdens on market-based international commerce2 and 7,c7 to align policies with respect to curbing state-directed subsidization of the private sector1 such as advocating for global rules related to transparency and adherence to notification requirements1 including through the efforts currently being advanced by the ,united ,states1 ,japan1 and the ,european ,union2 7#d7 the ,united ,states and its allies and partners must collaborate to provide incentives to their respective companies to cooperate in areas such as-- 7,a7 advocating for protection of intellectual property rights in markets around the world2 7,b7 fostering open technical standards2 and 7,c7 increasing joint investments in overseas markets2 and 7#e7 the ,united ,states should develop policies that-- 7,a7 insulate ,united ,states entities from ,,prc pressure against complying with ,united ,states laws2 7,b7 counter the potential impact of the blocking regime of the ,,prc described in subsection 7a77#ab71 including by working with allies and partners of the ,united ,states and multilateral institutions2 and 7,c7 plan for future actions that the ,government of the ,,prc may take to undermine the lawful application of ,united ,states legal authorities1 including with respect to the use of sanctions4 #cdjb4 ,intellectual property violators list

commitments to advancing strategic security through enforceable arms control and non-proliferation agreements as states parties to the ,treaty on the ,non-,proliferation of ,nuclear ,weapons1 done at ,washington1 ,london1 and ,moscow ,july #a1 #aifh4 7#b7 ,the ,united ,states has long taken tangible steps to seek effective1 verifiable1 and enforceable arms control and non-proliferation agreements that support ,united ,states and allied security by-- 7,a7 controlling the spread of nuclear materials and technology2 7,b7 placing limits on the production1 stockpiling1 and deployment of nuclear weapons2 7,c7 decreasing misperception and miscalculation2 and 7,d7 avoiding destabilizing nuclear arms competition4 7#c7 ,in ,may #bjai1 ,director of the ,defense ,intelligence ,agency ,lieutenant ,general ,robert ,ashley stated1 ,china is likely to at least double the size of its nuclear stockpile in the course of implementing the most rapid expansion and diversification of its nuclear arsenal in ,china's history44 ,the ,,pla is building a full triad of modernized fixed and mobile ground-based launchers and new capabilities for nuclear-armed bombers and submarine-launched ballistic missiles4 7#d7 ,in ,june #bjbj1 the ,department of ,state raised concerns in its annual ,adherence to and ,compliance with ,arms ,control1 ,nonproliferation1 and ,disarmament ,agreements and ,commitments report to ,congress that the ,,prc is not complying with the zero-yield nuclear testing ban and accused the ,,prc of blocking the flow of data from the monitoring stations in ,china4 7#e7 ,the ,department of ,defense #bjbj ,report on ,military and ,security ,developments ,involving the ,people's ,republic of ,china states that the ,,prc intends to increase peacetime readiness of its nuclear forces by moving to a launch on warning posture with an expanded silo-based force4 7#f7 ,the ,department of ,defense report also states that1 over the next decade1 the ,,prc's nuclear stockpile--currently estimated in the low #bjjs--is projected to least double in size as the ,,prc expands and modernizes its nuclear force4 7#g7 ,the ,,prc is conducting research on its first potential early warning radar1 with technical cooperation from ,russia4 ,this radar could indicate that the ,,prc is moving to a launch-on warning posture4 7#h7 ,the ,,prc plans to use its increasingly capable space1 cyber1 and electronic warfare capabilities against ,united ,states early warning systems and critical infrastructure in a crisis scenario4 ,this poses great risk to strategic security1 as it could lead to inadvertent escalation4 7#i7 ,the ,,prc's nuclear expansion comes as a part of a massive modernization of the ,,pla which1 combined with the ,,pla's aggressive actions1 has increasingly destabilized the ,indo-,pacific region4 7#aj7 ,the ,,pla ,rocket ,force 7,,plarf71 which was elevated in #bjae to become a separate branch within the ,,pla1 has formed #aa new missile brigades since ,may #bjag1 some of which are capable of both conventional and nuclear strikes4 ,unlike the ,united ,states1 which separates its conventional strike and nuclear capabilities1 the ,,plarf appears to not only co-locate conventional and nuclear forces1 including dual-use missiles like the ,,df-#bf1 but to task the same unit with both nuclear and conventional missions4 ,such intermingling could lead to inadvertent escalation in a crisis4 ,the ,united ,states ,defense ,intelligence ,agency determined in ,march #bjbj that the ,,pla tested more ballistic missiles than the rest of the world combined in #bjai4 7#aa7 ,a ,january #bjba report from the ,institute for ,defense ,analysis found that many ,united ,states and international observers viewed ,china's no first-use policy with skepticism1 especially in the wake of the expansion and modernization of its nuclear capabilities4 7#ab7 ,the long-planned ,united ,states nuclear modernization program will not increase the ,united ,states nuclear weapons stockpile1 predates ,china's conventional military and nuclear expansion1 and is not an arms race against ,china4 7#ac7 ,the ,united ,states extended nuclear deterrence-- 7,a7 provides critical strategic security around the world2 7,b7 is an essential element of ,united ,states military alliances2 and 7,c7 serves a vital non-proliferation function4 7#ad7 ,as a signatory to the ,treaty on the ,non-,proliferation of ,nuclear ,weapons1 done at ,washington1 ,london1 and ,moscow ,july #a1 #aifh1 the ,,prc is obligated under ,article ,six of the treaty to pursue arms control negotiations in good faith4 7#ae7 ,the ,united ,states has1 on numerous occasions1 called on the ,,prc to participate in strategic arms control negotiations1 but the ,,prc has thus far declined4 7#af7 ,the ,governments of ,japan1 the ,united ,kingdom1 ,poland1 ,slovenia1 ,denmark1 ,norway1 ,latvia1 ,lithuania1 ,estonia1 the ,netherlands1 ,romania1 ,austria1 ,montenegro1 ,ukraine1 ,slovakia1 ,spain1 ,north ,macedonia1 ,sweden1 the ,czech ,republic1 ,croatia1 and ,albania1 as well as the ,deputy ,secretary ,general of the ,north ,atlantic ,treaty ,organization1 have all encouraged the ,,prc to join arms control discussions4 #cejb4 ,cooperation on a strategic nuclear dialogue 7a7 ,statement of policy ,it is the policy of the ,united ,states-- 7#a7 to pursue1 in coordination with ,united ,states allies1 arms control negotiations and sustained and regular engagement with the ,,prc-- 7,a7 to enhance understanding of each other's respective nuclear policies1 doctrine1 and capabilities2 7,b7 to improve transparency2 and 7,c7 to help manage the risks of miscalculation and misperception2 7#b7 to formulate a strategy to engage the ,government of the ,people's ,republic of ,china on relevant bilateral issues that lays the groundwork for bringing the ,people's ,republic of ,china into an arms control framework1 including-- 7,a7 fostering bilateral dialogue on arms control leading to the convening of bilateral strategic security talks2 7,b7 negotiating norms for outer space2 7,c7 developing pre-launch notification regimes aimed at reducing nuclear miscalculation2 and 7,d7 expanding lines of communication between both governments for the purposes of reducing the risks of conventional war and increasing transparency2 7#c7 to pursue relevant capabilities in coordination with our allies and partners to ensure the security of ,united ,states and allied interests in the face of the ,,prc's military modernization and expansion1 including-- 7,a7 ground-launched cruise and ballistic missiles2 7,b7 integrated air and missile defense2 7,c7 hypersonic missiles2 7,d7 intelligence1 surveillance1 and reconnaissance2 7,e7 space-based capabilities2 7,f7 cyber capabilities2 and 7,g7 command1 control1 and communications2 7#d7 to maintain sufficient force structure1 posture1 and capabilities to provide extended nuclear deterrence to ,united ,states allies and partners2 7#e7 to maintain appropriate missile defense capabilities to protect against threats to the ,united ,states homeland and our forces across the theater from rogue intercontinental ballistic missiles from the ,indo-,pacific region2 and 7#f7 to ensure that the ,united ,states declaratory policy reflects the requirements of extended deterrence1 to both assure allies and to preserve its non-proliferation benefits4 7b7 ,sense of ,congress ,it is the sense of ,congress that-- 7#a7 in the midst of growing competition between the ,united ,states and the ,,prc1 it is in the interest of both nations to cooperate in reducing risks of conventional and nuclear escalation2 7#b7 a physical1 cyber1 electronic1 or any other ,,pla attack on ,united ,states early warning satellites1 other portions of the nuclear command and control enterprise1 or critical infrastructure poses a high risk to inadvertent but rapid escalation2 7#c7 the ,united ,states and its allies should promote international norms on military operations in space1 the employment of cyber capabilities1 and the military use of artificial intelligence1 as an element of risk reduction regarding nuclear command and control2 and 7#d7 ,united ,states allies and partners should share the burden of promoting and protecting such norms by voting against the ,,prc's proposals regarding the weaponization of space1 highlighting unsafe behavior by the ,,prc that violates international norms1 such as in rendezvous and proximity operations1 and promoting responsible behavior in space and all other domains4 #cejc4 ,report on ,united ,states efforts to engage the ,people's ,republic of ,china on nuclear issues and ballistic missile issues

,agreement ,the term ,agreement means the ,economic and ,trade ,agreement ,between the ,government of the ,united ,states of ,america and the ,government of ,china1 dated ,january #ae1 #bjbj4 7#b7 ,appropriate committees of ,congress ,the term appropriate committees of ,congress means the ,committee on ,finance of the ,senate and the ,committee on ,ways and ,means of the ,house of ,representatives4 #fcjd4 ,findings and sense of the ,senate regarding an investigation to determine the origins of ,,covid-#ai 7a7 ,findings ,congress finds the following3 7#a7 ,,covid-#ai has taken the lives of nearly #c1ejj1jjj individuals around the world4 7#b7 ,understanding the origins of the ,,covid-#ai pandemic is essential to addressing our vulnerabilities and preventing future crises4 7#c7 ,in ,may #bjbj1 the ,world ,health ,assembly did not authorize a comprehensive investigation into the origins of ,,covid-#ai1 and instead passed a significantly limited compromise resolution1 with ,chinese government support1 which did not explicitly include in its scope the possibility of a research-related accident4 7#d7 ,the #bjbj ,world ,health ,assembly resolution and its terms of reference1 which were negotiated privately between the ,world ,health ,organization 7in this section referred to as ,,who7 and ,chinese authorities1 handed the ,chinese government control over the joint-study process by giving the ,chinese government veto power over which international experts were allowed to participate in the joint study and by agreeing that most primary research would be carried out by ,chinese teams without ensuring broad access to primary data by international experts4 7#e7 ,as a result of these terms1 the significant structural1 procedural1 and analytical shortcomings of the joint study1 and the severe restrictions imposed by ,chinese authorities1 the ,,who-convened joint study into the origins of ,,covid-#ai was prevented from providing a balanced consideration of the multiple theories of the origin of ,,covid-#ai4 7#f7 ,only #d of the #cac pages of the joint-study team report and its annexes addressed the possibility of a laboratory accident1 and no thorough examination of the lab incident hypothesis was carried out by the joint-study team4 7#g7 ,some of the international experts on the joint-study team stated that they lacked the means and resources to properly investigate the research-related accident hypothesis1 and they were neither able nor meant to do such a full investigation but instead were acting as a study review group4 7#h7 ,,who ,director-,general ,dr4 ,tedros ,adhanom ,ghebreyesus commented on ,march #cj1 #bjba1 the day the joint-study report was released1 ,i do not believe that the joint-study team's assessment of a possible lab incident was extensive enough4 ,further data and studies will be needed to reach more robust conclusions ''' potentially with additional missions involving specialist experts1 which ,i am ready to deploy44 7#i7 ,the ,,who ,director-,general further commented1 ,as far as ,,who is concerned all hypotheses remain on the table ''' ,we have not yet found the source of the virus1 and we must continue to follow the science and leave no stone unturned as we do ''' ,it is clear that we need more research across a range of areas1 which will entail further field visits44 7#aj7 ,the ,march #cj1 #bjba ,joint ,statement on the ,,who-convened ,,covid-#ai ,origins ,study by the ,united ,states and #ac other countries recognized the severe shortcomings of the joint-study process and called for a transparent and independent analysis and evaluation1 free from interference and undue influence44 7#aa7 ,in spite of the devastation the ,,covid-#ai pandemic has caused in the ,united ,states and around the world1 no process currently exists to ensure a comprehensive investigation into the source of ,,covid-#ai4 7#ab7 ,such an investigation is essential for ensuring this type of crisis never happens again for the benefit of all people1 all nations1 and future generations4 7b7 ,sense of the ,senate ,it is the sense of the ,senate that-- 7#a7 a comprehensive investigation to determine the origins of ,,covid-#ai must be conducted by ,,who immediately1 with access to all relevant records1 samples1 and personnel in ,china1 and that such investigation must fully explore all possible sources of the ,,covid-#ai pandemic1 including exclusively natural zoonosis in the wild1 human contamination in an animal farm1 and a research-related accident2 7#b7 the ,united ,states delegation to the ,world ,health ,assembly should1 in concert with allies and partners around the world1 work to ensure that an international scientific investigation into the origins of ,,covid-#ai1 with full access to all relevant records1 samples1 and personnel in ,china1 will be authorized by the ,world ,health ,assembly and implemented with extreme urgency2 and 7#c7 should such a full investigation not be authorized by the #bjba ,world ,health ,assembly1 then the ,united ,states ,government should immediately begin planning a comprehensive and data-driven investigation into the ,,covid-#ai pandemic origins1 in concert with willing partner governments and experts around the world4 ,g ,trade ,act of #bjba #gjjja4 ,short title2 table of contents 7a7 ,short title ,this division

take effect on the date that is #cj days after the date of the enactment of this ,act4 #gcjjf4 ,sense of ,congress on leadership at ,world ,trade ,organization 7a7 ,findings ,congress makes the following findings3 7#a7 ,the ,united ,states had led the formation1 as well as reform1 of rules governing the multilateral trading system since ,world ,war ,,ii4 7#b7 ,the ,united ,states is a founding member of the ,world ,trade ,organization 7in this section referred to as the ,,wto7 and a key architect of the organization4 7#c7 ,the ,united ,states secured important commitments in the ,,wto to facilitate trade in goods and services1 to prevent the application of non-scientific restrictions on ,united ,states agriculture1 and to protect ,united ,states intellectual property4 7#d7 ,the ,united ,states uses the rules of the ,,wto to benefit workers1 farmers1 fishers1 and businesses in the ,united ,states by facilitating access to the #ij percent of the world's consumers who live outside the borders of the ,united ,states4 7#e7 ,the fundamental purpose of the ,,wto is to create space for members to negotiate with each other1 and the ,,wto reserves to those members exclusively the right to negotiate and adopt rules that reduce and eliminate trade barriers and discriminatory treatment4 7#f7 ,the prompt settlement of disputes in which a member of the ,,wto considers that its rights are being impaired by the actions of another member is essential to the functioning of the ,,wto and the maintenance of a proper balance between the rights and obligations of members4 7#g7 ,the ,,wto's dispute settlement function1 including in particular the ,appellate ,body1 has increasingly failed to enforce the rules of the ,,wto in a timely manner1 and has usurped the negotiating prerogative of members by creating new obligations and rights that are inconsistent with or not included in the rules negotiated by members4 7#h7 ,the creation of those obligations and rights undermines-- 7,a7 the ,,wto's negotiating function by discouraging members from making concessions2 and 7,b7 the ,,wto's dispute settlement function by encouraging overuse of the process and undermining its legitimacy1 including by preventing free market economies from responding to globally trade distortive practices by nonmarket economies4 7#i7 ,the ,,wto does not have sufficient rules to discipline the distortive economic policies of nonmarket economies1 such as policies relating to excess capacity and forced technology transfer1 the special treatment those economies afford to state-owned enterprises1 and their massive and opaque industrial subsidies4 7#aj7 ,there is long-standing bipartisan support in ,congress to reform the ,,wto to address those failings4 7#aa7 ,the current presidential administration1 as well as prior administrations1 raised concerns about the failings described in this subsection and have made reform of the ,,wto a top priority of ,united ,states trade policy4 7#ab7 ,the ,united ,states urges ,,wto members to work constructively with the ,united ,states to assess the reasons why the existing ,,wto rules have proven inadequate in order to create an atmosphere within the ,,wto that is conducive to the development of new rules less subject to jurisprudential drift4 7#ac7 ,the guiding principle for reform of the ,,wto1 and the lens through which ,,wto members should consider specific reform proposals1 is the restoration of the ,,wto's capability and capacity for negotiation among members4 7#ad7 ,the ,united ,states has achieved its trade policy objectives through active leadership at the ,,wto1 and an absence of that leadership would be filled by nonmarket economies that are hostile to a host of ,united ,states interests4 7b7 ,sense of ,congress ,it is the sense of ,congress that-- 7#a7 while the ,united ,states finds value and usefulness in the ,,wto1 in order to fulfill the needs of the ,united ,states and other free and open economies in the #bast century1 significant reforms are needed2 7#b7 the ,united ,states must therefore continue to demonstrate leadership to achieve reforms that restore the effectiveness of the ,,wto's-- 7,a7 negotiating function2 7,b7 dispute settlement function so that it transparently1 efficiently1 and fully enforces outcomes negotiated by members rather than usurping their primacy by creating new rights or obligations2 and 7,c7 rules for special and differential treatment to ensure those rules promote advancement for truly developing countries1 rather than becoming tools for globally competitive countries1 like the ,people's ,republic of ,china1 to engage in protectionism and market distortions2 7#c7 the efforts to reform the negotiating function of the ,,wto should revitalize the negotiating function by providing confidence to members that the ,,wto operates according to the rules as negotiated and adopted by members2 7#d7 a revitalized negotiating function must include new rules that reflect the #bast century economy1 further combat anticompetitive and protectionist barriers1 and ensure disputes are efficiently resolved2 7#e7 the ,united ,states ,trade ,representative should continue to lead efforts to work with ,,wto members to pursue reforms at the ,,wto that-- 7,a7 ensure the dispute settlement mechanism faithfully applies the rules adopted by members1 including by undertaking measures to ensure the ,,wto's ,appellate ,body does not create new rights and obligations2 7,b7 improve public confidence in dispute settlement by promoting greater transparency and efficiency in the conduct of proceedings2 7,c7 redress the consistent failure by certain members to satisfy their notification obligations under various ,,wto agreements1 including through measures that strengthen accountability2 7,d7 ensure rules for special and differential treatment are appropriately reserved for countries whose state of development and global competitiveness actually warrants such flexibility2 7,e7 create new rules and structures that can serve the interests of the ,united ,states while promoting peace1 prosperity1 good governance1 transparency1 effective operation of legal regimes1 the rule of law1 and free enterprise2 and 7,f7 expand upon the trilateral negotiations currently underway with ,japan and the ,european ,union2 and 7#f7 the ,united ,states ,trade ,representative should explore and assess specific reform proposals1 including-- 7,a7 pursuing plurilateral agreements that further the interests of the ,united ,states while limiting the benefits accruing to countries that are not parties to those agreements2 7,b7 efforts to ensure that incorrect interpretations by the ,appellate ,body1 including with respect to the ,agreement on ,safeguards1 the ,agreement on ,implementation of ,article ,,vi of the ,general ,agreement on ,tariffs and ,trade #aiid1 and the ,agreement on ,subsidies and ,countervailing ,measures1 are corrected1 and not to be deemed precedential2 7,c7 new rules and norms to address practices of nonmarket economies1 such as practices relating to state-owned enterprises1 which certain countries often utilize for objectives that cause severe trade distortions2 and 7,d7 better implementation of existing rules1 such as the prohibition in paragraph #d of ,article ,,xiv of the ,general ,agreement on ,tariffs and ,trade on currency manipulation1 to ensure that those rules are effective to preserve the rights of free market economies4 ,,iv ,promoting ,american ,competitiveness ,a ,reauthorization and
