2020 MN Senatorial race: on Free Trade


Jason Lewis: Punish China, bring our supply chains home

China's culpability is obvious to most Americans. And we must hold them accountable. One way we can punish China for their actions is by bringing our supply chains home. There is no reason we should be dependent on China for vital industries. Let's end our reliance on China and bring those jobs back to the United States.

Jason Lewis: America First: end outsourcing to China, Buy American

If America First means anything, it means an end to outsourcing medical supplies to China. A Communist country so emboldened they've already threatened to cut off the U.S. drug supply, plunging America "into the hell of a novel coronavirus epidemic." It means a new "Buy American" emphasis ending a dangerous supply-chain dependence for our key industries, starting with a directive that all federal agencies buy American-made supplies in vital areas.
