John Kennedy: ‘God Created the World, But Everything Else Is Made in China’
RUSH EXCERPT
BARTIROMO: Senator let me switch gears and ask you about your legislation in terms of your bill to kick Chinese companies off of U.S. Exchanges if they keep hiding audits from U.S. Inspectors. The president just referred to this and I asked him is he going to go one step further and make sure to hold these Chinese companies that are listed on our exchange accountable to just follow the rules that everybody else does. Tell us about your bill."
KENNEDY: "God created the world, but everything else is made in China how did that happen? We let it. We allowed China to be admitted to the world trade organization on December 11, 2001. China started cheating December 12, and President Trump has been the first president to really stand up to them. Let me give you an example. If you list your stock on an American exchange, you have to have audits, periodically and the sec gets to review those audits. China has many of its companies, some state-owned, listed on our exchanges that they refuse to let the sec look at their audits, and I have a bill to kick them off. I’ve known about this forever and do you know what the Congress has done about it? Nothing zero, nada, zilch. And if my bill and senator van H ylen’s bill comes to the floor of the United States Senate it will pass.
