No. Hold them accountable as President Trump in his phase one agreement with China? No. Third, does it counter China\u2019s aggression around the world when it comes to trade agreements in divvying up the world\u2019s customers for China instead of America? The short answer is no.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s no serious effort to counter China economically, on trade, force them to change their behavior on stealing intellectual property from America, or forcing companies to transfer their technologies to China. It is a partisan bill,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Brady has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/02\/01\/kevin-brady-democrats-prioritize-welfare-climate-change-over-competing-with-china\/\">sounded<\/a> the alarm over the bill\u2019s massive renewal of the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program, which he has described as a \u201ctrade welfare expansion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brady said that the TAA program is meant to help those who lose their jobs due to trade; however, he suggested that some may be able to receive TAA assistance even if they did not lose their job due to trade.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B3\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p>Brady said the provision in the America COMPETES Act is \u201cfour times bigger than the Build Back Better monstrosity.\u201d The expanded TAA assistance costs $22 billion, far more than the $6 billion increase in subsidies in the Build Back Better bill passed in the House in November 2021.<\/p>\n<p>The America COMPETES Act would also grant, in Brady\u2019s words, a \u201cpermanent and larger\u201d Health Care Tax Credit for TAA workers, who already have access to health care subsidies in the individual health insurance market.<\/p>\n<p>Brady also said that \u201cBidenflation\u201d has harmed the average working American family, forcing them to pay last year, on average, $3,500 more than they did the year before for the same products.<\/p>\n<p>Marlow noted that \u201cBidenflation\u201d is a \u201cregressive tax\u201d that hurts the poor and working families more than the wealthy.<\/p>\n<p>Brady agreed, adding that minorities also feel the brunt of inflation, and that inflation pushes many people into a higher tax bracket, which is yet another expense made greater due to \u201cBidenflation.\u201d He said that last year\u2019s inflation under President Joe Biden wiped out the financial gains many people made under former President Donald Trump and his policies.<\/p>\n<p><em>Breitbart News Daily broadcasts live on SiriusXM Patriot 125 weekdays from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. Eastern.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><i>Sean Moran is a congressional reporter for Breitbart News.
