Bill > S1165

This bill, called the "Strengthen American Competitiveness Against Harmful Subsidies Act of 2025," requires the United States Trade Representative (USTR) to conduct ongoing monitoring of industrial subsidies provided by the Chinese government, working in coordination with multiple federal agencies including the Departments of State, Commerce, Agriculture, and others. The USTR must submit an annual report to congressional committees identifying current and expected Chinese industrial subsidies that pose significant risks to U.S. employment and manufacturing, particularly in strategically critical industries. The report must also recommend legislative, administrative, or other actions to mitigate these risks. The bill defines key terms such as "strategically critical goods" and "strategically critical industries" as those having significant implications for national security or economic security, including impacts on critical infrastructure and key technology areas. By mandating this regular monitoring and reporting, the bill aims to provide Congress and relevant government agencies with comprehensive insights into potential economic threats posed by Chinese industrial subsidies, enabling more informed policy and strategic responses to protect U.S. economic interests.
