Dear Senator Stabenow:

By a decision taken by our board on June 23, 2010, the Coalition for a Prosperous America is proud to endorse your recent legislation, the China Fair Trade Act of 2010. Your bill appropriately addresses the problem of China refusing to buy U.S. goods and services in its government procurement decisions even as the United States government chooses to buy Chinese goods and services in its procurement decision.
