SR 29 Arkansas Senate · 2024 Fiscal Session

TO ENCOURAGE THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS TO ENACT A TRADE POLICY THAT SUPPORTS UNITED STATES BUSINESSES AND WORKERS WHILE PENALIZING GLOBAL POLLUTERS.

This Senate resolution from Arkansas urges the U.S. Congress to create trade policies that favor American businesses and workers while penalizing foreign countries with high pollution levels. The bill specifically targets nations like China and Russia, arguing that their goods are more polluting than those produced in the United States. It proposes rewarding domestic companies for their environmental performance to boost rural manufacturing and reduce reliance on imports. The resolution does not directly change laws but serves as a formal recommendation to federal lawmakers to address these trade and environmental issues.
