Democrats and Republicans don’t agree on much these days, but the Dem-controlled Senate joined with the GOP-controlled House to block a rule imposed by the Biden administration that was seen as much more beneficial to Chinese companies.
Fox News reported on Thursday that the House, “in a 209-198 vote, the chamber passed a resolution reversing the president’s actions with two House Democrats, Reps. Jared Golden of Maine and Donald Davis of North Carolina, joining 207 Republicans who voted in favor and two House Republicans, Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania and Tom McClintock of California, joining 196 Democrats who voted against.”
House Republican Chair Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., said in a statement: “I voted to overturn Joe Biden’s pro-Communist China rule that would undermine American businesses that have made significant investments into EV manufacturing. Biden’s waiver of the Buy America requirements empower our foreign adversaries like Communist China by pouring hard-earned American taxpayer dollars into foreign markets.”
