Rep. Mo Brooks wants China to pay restitution to Americans for COVID damages
Fox News
The ongoing effort to hold China accountable for devastating coronavirus losses got a boost with new legislation from Rep. Mo Brooks who says the Communist Party of China (CPC) should be subjected to 10 & tariffs if they don't pay restitution to Americans.
Brooks' legislation – which faces an uphill climb in the Democratic-controlled House – would establish an immediate 10% tariff on all products manufactured in China and imported into the United States if China doesn't pay up. The tariff money would be directed into a new COVID–19 Restitution Trust Fund, modeled after the 9/11 Victims Compensation Fund, that would pay businesses and families who suffered death, sickness and financial losses from coronavirus. The money would also be spent on reimbursing federal, state and local governments for their COVID-19 response efforts.More Related News
