Mr. President, for the benefit of my colleagues, I yield myself 30 minutes. I candidly don't expect to take 30 minutes. For those Senators who wish to speak after me, it will probably be a shorter period of time than 30 minutes.

Mike DeWine

Mr. President, I rise today to speak on the legislation before us -- H.R. 4444, the legislation extending Permanent Normal Trading Relations to the People's Republic of China or PNTR. As we approach's today's final vote, I want to make it clear that I believe strongly in free and fair trade. And, I support efforts aimed at increasing free and fair trade with China. However, as we approach the vote, I think we must take a few minutes and try to put the current debate into its proper perspective. That is what I intend to do.

Mike DeWine

Passing PNTR will result in lower trade barriers and more U.S. sales to China. We know that. But, the extent of our increased sales will depend on factors beyond our control. Our ability to send more exports to China depends largely on China's continued economic growth, its compliance with the bilateral agreement, and its development of a middle-class.

Mike DeWine

While increasing trade with China certainly is important, we must put this current debate into its proper context. We need to view this debate as it relates to both our worldwide trade policy and to our foreign policy and national security interests. With this broader perspective in mind, it becomes very clear that passing the PNTR legislation is just one part of our overall relationship with China and one part of our overall global trade policy. There remain other pressing foreign policy issues and other trade issues that await our next President, the next Congress, and the American people. Let me explain.

The fact is, as we all know, the United States is a leader in the area of free trade. If we fail to pass the PNTR legislation, we would be sending a signal to the world that the United States wants to isolate China. That's a signal we don't want to send. Both by word and deed, the United States must be the world's leader in promoting free trade. At the same time, though, we also don't want to send China -- and the world -- a signal that we will tolerate the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction -- a practice China engages in openly.

In terms of our overall trade policy, we also cannot send a signal to our neighbors in the Western Hemisphere that says we are only interested in concentrating on the Chinese market. Since so much time and energy and resources has been directed to liberalizing trade in China, it may be a surprise to some that China represents only two percent of our foreign sales.

To keep it in proper perspective, there was no one who estimates that percentage will go beyond 2\1/2\ or 3 percent in the immediate future. Two percent of our total foreign markets is only $13 billion in U.S. sales to China.

Now, compare that to markets closer to home. Last year, Canada was our number one export destination, with $167 billion in U.S. sales, while Mexico was our second largest export market with $87 billion in sales. Further, our exports to Brazil ($13.2 billion) last year exceeded our sales to China. And what's more, forty-four percent of our exports remained right here in our own hemisphere.

Those $13 billion in sales to China pale in comparison to trade within our hemisphere. Yet, the Administration and the business community have made granting PNTR to China their single-minded trade focus. This narrow agenda has not come without cost.

Because the Administration has not emphasized expanding free trade in our hemisphere, other nations are taking the lead in seizing the economic opportunities that are right in our backyard. Our inaction in this hemisphere has essentially made it easier for Europe, Asia, and Canada to significantly expand their exports throughout Latin America. The European Union (EU), for example, is now Brazil's largest trading partner. The EU's exports to Brazil have grown 255 percent from 1990 to 1998.

The next administration and the business community need to pay attention to our own hemisphere. That means that the next administration and the next Congress need to pass fast-track trading authority and move toward a hemispheric free trade area. It is imperative that we do this. That means that we will need to expand the North American Free Trade Agreement, which, over this last decade, has advanced economic cooperation and growth between the United States and Mexico, increasing U.S. exports to Mexico by 207 percent. And, that means that we must abandon this very narrow focus with which the current administration has viewed trade policy and start widening the lens to be more inclusive of the markets right here in our own backyard. This is significant unfinished business that our next President and our next Congress and the American people will have to address.

But, even more significant in terms of our unfinished business are the considerable national security issues at stake regarding our overall relationship with China. I say that because this is China we are talking about. China is different. China, as my colleagues all know, is unlike any other country in the world. China is a major power -- a nuclear power -- and China is the world's major proliferator of weapons of mass destruction.

Sadly, this administration has failed to stop the Chinese government's weapons proliferation. Sadly, this administration has not demonstrated the kind of leadership necessary to prevent China from manufacturing and selling weapons technology worldwide.

Like the United States, China is a co-signator of the Nuclear Non- Proliferation Treaty, yet over the last decade, its government has violated the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty willingly, openly, and egregiously. Their actions are well documented. For example, Washington Times National Security reporter, Bill Gertz, writes in his recent book:

The PRC has shown no remorse for its past actions -- and certainly no inclination to change them. Rather, China has flaunted -- openly -- its violations.

At the beginning of the last decade, Pakistan was believed to possess a very modest nuclear weapons program -- one that was inferior to India's program. Our own laws effectively banned U.S. government assistance to Pakistan because of its decision to go nuclear, and our sanctions laws contained tough penalties for any nation attempting to feed Pakistan's nuclear hunger.

That was then. Today, China has single-handedly worked to change the balance of power in South Asia and, in turn, has made the region far more different and far more dangerous.

Today, according to news reports, Pakistan possesses more weapons than India and has a better capability to deliver them. President Clinton stated earlier this year that South Asia has now become the most dangerous place in the world. We have China to thank for that.

The significant change in the balance of power between Pakistan and India was engineered by China, which provided Pakistan with critical technology to enrich and mold uranium, M-11 missile equipment and technology, and expertise and equipment to enable Pakistan to have its own missile production capability.

What has this Administration done to change this behavior? Essentially nothing. Time after time, as reporters, like Bill Gertz, uncovered extraordinary information on proliferation activities, this Administration failed to impose even the mildest sanctions against China as required by law. For example, in 1995, at the same time this Administration was aware of China's transfer of sensitive nuclear technology to Pakistan, the Administration was seeking to weaken our non-proliferation laws against Pakistan. And, rather than aggressively use the sanctions laws on the books to try to bring about a change in China's behavior, this Administration sought to find ways to show it had reached a common understanding with China to prohibit these activities and thus avoid sanctions.

In the Middle East, it's the same story. News reports have documented China's contributions to Iran's nuclear development and ballistic and cruise missile programs, including anti-ship missiles that are a threat to our naval presence and commercial shipping in the Persian Gulf. Further, the CIA's bi-annual report also confirmed that Chinese government multi-nationals are assisting the Libyan government in building a more advanced missile program.

As it stands, international rules of conduct and pledges to our government to forego its proliferation activity have not deterred China's arms-building practices. Further, this administration has not enforced U.S. non-proliferation laws adequately nor effectively. The Chinese government certainly does not take our government seriously on the question of weapons proliferation -- and frankly, why should they? The current Administration hasn't been a leader in encouraging nations to honor international non-proliferation agreements. Consequently, weapons of mass destruction are in more questionable hands than ever before.

Last year, a bipartisan commission headed by former CIA Director, John Deutch, concluded that our Federal Government is not equipped to fight nuclear proliferation. What does that say about our international credibility? What does that say about our ability to prevent the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction? What it says is that our diminished credibility may oblige other countries who are adversaries of Pakistan, Iran, and Libya to build their own weapons capabilities to counter these emerging threats.

In simple terms, the current administration has not led on these proliferation issues. That is why we should have passed Senator Thompson's amendment last week.

The Thompson amendment was important because it would have given us the ability to hold the People's Republic of China, and any nation, accountable for proliferating weapons of mass destruction and the means to deliver them. The bottom line is that if we are going to sacrifice our annual review of normal trade relations with China, then our next President and the next Congress will need new tools to pursue our national security objectives. Candidly, the next President will also have to use the tools that we have now given him.

So, where are we? When we put this whole debate in perspective -- when we put the debate into its proper economic and national security contexts -- where does this leave us? Realistically, approval of PNTR does not change the disagreements we have with China on weapons proliferation. It certainly will not change China's behavior. China will continue to proliferate. China will continue to pursue policies that will destabilize two critical regions of the world, placing our soldiers and our allies in serious danger.

Now that we are about to pass this legislation -- now that we are about to advance our free trade policy -- what do we intend to do to advance our non-proliferation policy and our own national security? Does this Administration have an answer? No, I do not think they do. Quite candidly, they never have.

We need an answer. And, from the vantage point of our national security strategy, I believe that if we fail to show vigilance in the enforcement of non-proliferation policy, we will place this nation at a terrible disadvantage. If we fail to show vigilance, we will effectively continue a de facto policy that has worked to undermine our national non-proliferation policy and is working to make our world a more dangerous place.

Had this administration pursued a non-proliferation policy with the same amount of intensity, creativity, and vigor it showed in advancing our commercial relationship with China, this would have been a far easier vote to cast.

I fear if we do not act soon to change the current course of our weapons proliferation policy -- if we do not revisit the Thompson amendment, and we will revisit the Thompson amendment -- we will be sending a signal to China and to the world that says our trade interests are more important than the security of our Nation, more important than the security of our children and grandchildren.

The United States has been the world's most outspoken advocate for free trade. We are the world's free trade leader. We believe free trade is a cornerstone of a free society and a free people. We believe it can be a step toward helping closed nations become open and democratic. No one here can say with certainty that it will work in China, but as the world's leader in free trade, I believe we have to try.

With this vote today, we are keeping our word as that leader, and we are moving forward. To do otherwise, to go back on the agreement this country negotiated last November, would send the wrong message to the world. It would say that the United States cannot be counted on to practice what we preach, and the implications of that message will extend far beyond our ability to negotiate trade agreements with China. A message such as that will affect our credibility worldwide.

Further, I have concluded that a "no" vote will do nothing to wean China from its weapons-building addiction. But that is why we must not stop here with today's vote. We should move forward and show clear leadership and clear direction in regard to our nonproliferation policy.

With this vote, I pledge to work with our next President to change the current state of affairs and to work toward maintaining our place as the world's model for free and fair trade. I will continue to push for free trade opportunities, both within and beyond our hemisphere. Much more important, I also pledge to work toward making our world a safer and more secure place for our children, our grandchildren, and our great grandchildren. I will continue to insist that China and other weapons-proliferating nations abide by international agreements, and I will continue to insist again, again, and again that our Nation take the lead in this area.

This is not the last time I will be on this floor talking about the problems with China. This Senate will regret if we do not return to this issue. The Thompson amendment will come back, and we will insist that it be voted on. This country has to stand strong and firm against China and their proliferation policies. Their proliferation policies threaten the security of our children and our grandchildren, and we will ignore their actions at our peril.

Mr. President, I rise today to urge my Senate colleagues on both sides of the aisle to grant Permanent Normal Trade Relations status to China. This is about moving China in the right direction, and in the process allowing America's workers to benefit from the massive trade concessions we have won at the negotiating table.

This is a critical vote. China is home to one out of every five people on the planet, and our relationship with China is important. This vote can also have a positive impact on regional relationships throughout Asia. That is because Taiwan and Asian nations like Japan support China's accession to the World Trade Organization. They know that China's engagement will be a positive development. If Congress fails to grant PNTR to China, we will hinder our broader relationship with that country, make it harder for us to promote change there, and damage America's workers and industries as they compete with other countries for a place in China's market. The Chinese have agreed to radically open their market to U.S. goods and services. Chinese trade concessions will benefit the United States across all economic sectors in virtually every region of our country. And, the changes China has committed itself to -- in order to join the WTO -- will further open China to Western ideas.

I have come to the floor today to illustrate the ways that PNTR for China will help our families, our industries, and our economy. Washington State is the most trade-dependent State in our Union. The people of my state -- from aerospace workers to wheat farmers to longshoremen -- have urged me to make sure we take advantage of the concessions we have won from the Chinese. If we do not, good-paying family jobs will be lost, and our industries will be set back for years.

Before I elaborate on the ways PNTR for China will help America's workers, I must address many of the concerns we have about China. Over the years, I, like my colleagues, have been frustrated by the actions of the Chinese government on issues like human rights, religious freedom and weapons proliferation. As I have listened to the debate it is clear that we all want the same things: We want the people of China to have more freedom and more opportunities, and we want to bring China into the community of nations as a responsible partner. We all want the same results. The question is: What is the best way to get there? It is not to politicize our trade agreements. It is not to turn a trade vote into a referendum on how we feel about China. That is why I oppose the amendments that my colleagues have offered. These amendments will not solve the problems they highlight.

Instead, they will kill the bill for this Congress and perhaps longer and that will have a negative impact on our country. Killing this bill will do serious harm to our efforts to impact change in China on many issues. Killing this bill now will forever handicap U.S. exporters to China. It will punish U.S. workers, and it will give our competitors from Europe and Asia a massive head start as China opens its market to the world.

As I have thought about our relationship with China, I think one of the things that really frustrates us is that we are accustomed to quick fixes. In our political culture, we expect to be able to fix problems overnight. China, on the other hand, has a far different culture. Throughout its 4000 year history, China has resisted outside influences. As much as we would like to, we can't change China overnight. But we can change China over time. PNTR gives us the vehicle to help China move into the community of nations and to benefit America's families, industries and economy in the process.

Now that I have addressed the expectations and context surrounding our relationship with China, I want to return to the question I posed a moment ago: What is the best way to help China enter the community of nations? The answer is to engage with China. In fact, our own history has shown this to be true. Since 1980, when the United States normalized relations with China, our engagement has helped to change China for the better. I think it is useful to recall the history of how different China is today, than it was just 20 years ago. Before we normalized our relations, the Chinese people lived under the iron fist of their government. They enjoyed virtually no personal freedoms. Their jobs were predetermined. Their housing was assigned to them. Education, medical care, and travel were all dictated by a government-controlled system that rewarded blind loyalty to the state and harshly punished all dissent. Externally, China was closed to the outside world. Internally, China was hemorrhaging from the impact of the Cultural Revolution and other political conflicts. U.S. engagement with China has had a positive impact on that country. Certainly, we all want to see more progress and more changes in Chinese government behavior. I respect the concerns of my colleagues, but I recognize that we are making progress by engaging with China. We should not let our specific concerns override the many advantages that will flow to America's workers by supporting PNTR for China.

After considering the cultural and historic issues that have factored into this debate, I would like to focus on what this vote is about. The question before the Senate is really quite simple. The United States negotiated a trade deal with China. The agreement radically opens China's market to American workers, forces China to end its unfair practices, and gives the United States tough mechanisms to hold China accountable. The question before the Senate is: do we want to take this deal?

On behalf of my constituents and the American people, I will vote to put these Chinese concessions -- literally thousands of market-opening concessions -- to work for the benefit of our country. The Chinese concessions are far reaching and will impact every sector of our nation's economy and every region of our country. This agreement radically slashes tariffs. In fact, for some of our most important industries, it eliminates tariffs altogether. It preserves and in some cases strengthens our trade laws on issues like dumping, export controls, and the use of prison labor. China will no longer be able to require firms to transfer technologies and jobs to China in exchange for business. If China violates its commitments, it will have the 135 member countries of the WTO to contend with -- rather than just the United States. This is an opportunity to build a strong presence in the world's largest emerging market just as it opens its doors to the world.

The people of Washington State have a unique perspective on what this trade agreement will mean for our families, our industries and our economy. One of my predecessors, Senator Warren Magnusson, was one of the first Senators to call for closer U.S.-China ties in the 1970s. For more than 20 years, the entire period of China's most recent opening to the outside world, no other state has been as engaged with China and the Chinese people as extensively as my state has. Washington State is the most trade dependent state in the country. Soon, one in three jobs will rely on international trade. Our ports, rail yards, and airports serve as gateways to and from the Pacific Rim for millions of products. My entire state stands to gain a great deal from China's accession to the WTO.

I would like to share with my colleagues how increased trade with China will affect three important Washington industries: aerospace, agriculture, and technology. Let me begin by talking about our aerospace industry because Washington state produces the finest commercial airplanes in the world. We are home to the Boeing Company, and thousands of Washington families work for Boeing. As my colleagues know, Boeing competes with Airbus, its European rival. But the playing field isn't level. Airbus is subsidized by European states, and it gets additional financing assistance, allowing Airbus customers to finance aircraft on favorable terms. China is a huge new market for airplanes. Aviation experts predict China will purchase 1,600 new commercial airplanes worth $120 billion in the next 20 years. These sales will be hotly contested. We know that Airbus is a very aggressive competitor in the China market. Passing PNTR will give the workers in my state the chance to compete in that marketplace. Thousands of Washington state jobs -- good family jobs, good union jobs -- hang in the balance as Boeing and Airbus fight for the China market. That is why organized labor at Boeing, Local 751 of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, has publicly endorsed PNTR. The Boeing Machinists know that if we do not compete for aircraft sales in China, we will have ceded the largest marketplace in the world for commercial aircraft outside of the United States. Such an outcome would be disastrous for the future of our aerospace industry, and we're not just talking about one company or one industry. Thousands of small businesses in Washington state subcontract with Boeing. In addition, Boeing subcontracts in every state in the union -- creating the jobs that working families rely on. Passage of PNTR will give Boeing and so many other American companies the opportunity to compete freely and fairly in China. I have every confidence that Boeing and the thousands of Americans whose jobs are tied to aerospace will succeed in this new environment. Mr. President, let me turn to another important industry in my state.

Washington State is home to some of our country's finest agricultural products from wheat to apples to a host of specialty crops. But we've had trouble opening China's market to our exports. For more than 25 years, Washington wheat has been kept out of China by an unfair trade barrier. This year, as China neared membership in the World Trade Organization, it dropped its unfair trade barrier against wheat from the Pacific Northwest. As a result, this year, Washington's first wheat sale to China in 28 years recently sailed from the Port of Portland.

Thanks to PNTR and WTO accession, my constituents will have new opportunities to feed China's population, which equals 20 percent of the world's population. The opportunities are also great for another major crop, Washington state apples. With this agreement, China's market could open to an estimated $75 million a year in business for Washington's apple growers. Overall, agriculture stands to see one-third of its export growth tied to new sales to China. Washington growers and producers will see new opportunities across the board from pork, potatoes and barley to specialty crops like raspberries, hops and asparagus. It is easy to see why the agriculture community has been such a strong voice for this U.S.-China agreement and PNTR. Agriculture has done a great job working to ensure members understand that this agreement, and PNTR is vitally important to American agriculture.

Finally I want to turn to America's high-tech industries. I am proud that Washington State is home to Microsoft and other technology companies including Nintendo, Real Networks, and Amazon.com. These companies will benefit from new protections for U.S. intellectual property. They will benefit from the elimination of high tech tariffs, from anti-dumping protections, and from the right to import and distribute goods free from government regulation and interference. The Internet is taking hold in China. It holds immense potential for changing China's society. Thanks to this agreement, Washington State Internet companies will be aggressive competitors in this new market. In addition, America's telecommunications companies will benefit as well, including AT&T Wireless and VoiceStream Wireless, which are both based in Washington State.

As I have shown, opening China's markets will help the thousands of people in my state who work in the aerospace, agriculture and technology industries. We should make sure America's workers have access to the many benefits of China's marketplace. After 20 years of normalized relations between the U.S. and China, now is the time to pass PNTR. After 13 years of tough negotiations between the United States and China, now is the time to pass PNTR. And after more than 10 years of congressional consideration of China's trade status, now is the time to pass PNTR. The Senate has just spent two weeks debating PNTR, China's accession to the World Trade Organization, and many other China issues. The heart of the question before us is: Do we want American workers to benefit from the enormous trade concessions we have won from the Chinese? I want America to benefit, and I will vote for PNTR. At the same time, this is not our final China vote. Congress has a very legitimate role to play in helping shape our relationship with China and addressing our concerns. I look forward to those debates and those opportunities to advance our ideals in China. I encourage my colleagues to vote for PNTR, and I urge my colleagues to continue to closely follow the important U.S.-China relationship.

Mr. President, we have had an invigorating debate on a very important and complex issue -- whether to grant permanent normal trade relations, PNTR, status to China. There are many aspects to this debate: expansion and regulation of the international trading system; realignment of the US position within that system; review of China's internal policies -- in particular its human rights record; assessment of the prospect for constructive and systemic change in China; and the effect of PNTR upon U.S. businesses and consumers.

As many of my colleagues may remember, 2 months ago in the Finance Committee I cast the sole vote in opposition to granting PNTR to China. Although I believe in engagement with China, not isolating China, I felt strongly that I could not in good conscience vote to make this status permanent at that time. I told my colleagues about Ngawang Choephel, a Fulbright student from Middlebury College in Vermont, who was arrested by Chinese authorities while filming traditional song and dance in Tibet in 1995. Intent only on preserving traditional Tibetan music, Ngawang was charged with espionage and sentenced to 18 years in prison. I strongly protested his arrest and incarceration, together with the other Members of the Vermont delegation, the administration, and human rights supporters all over the world.

For 5 years, we received virtually no information on Ngawang's whereabouts and his condition. In spite of a Chinese law guaranteeing every prisoner the right to receive regular visits from next of kin, Chinese officials ignored the repeated pleas from Ngawang's mother, Sonam Dekyi, to visit him. During Finance Committee discussion of the PNTR legislation, I made clear my anger over the Chinese Government's unconscionable refusal to adhere to its own laws. I am pleased to report that a couple weeks later, the Chinese Ambassador to the United States called to inform me that Sonam Dekyi would be granted permission to visit her son. I thank my many colleagues who raised this case with the Chinese, and I particularly thank the Chinese Ambassador for his efforts on Sonam Dekyi's behalf.

Last month, Sonam Dekyi and her brother traveled to China to see Ngawang Choephel. They were treated very well and were allowed two visits with Ngawang. In addition, they had a meeting with the doctors at a nearby hospital who recently have treated Ngawang for several very serious illnesses. While Sonam Dekyi was very appreciative of the chance to see her son, she was disappointed to be granted only two visits and quite saddened to be denied her request just to touch her son after all these years. Most alarmingly, she found her son to be in very poor health. Despite receiving medical attention, he is very gaunt and reported ongoing pains in his chest and stomach. His mother fears for his life.

I fervently hope that in the wake of his mother's visit, greater attention will be paid to Ngawang's health, and that every effort will be made by Chinese medical personnel to treat his illnesses. However, I believe that the only solution to his health condition is medical parole. Ngawang needs extensive treatment and considerable rehabilitation. This cannot be accomplished under the harsh conditions of prison, especially a Chinese prison.

On humanitarian grounds, I appeal to the Chinese authorities to release Ngawang Choephel. This is the right thing to do, the decent thing to do, the human thing to do. Until Ngawang Choephel is released, I cannot in good conscience vote for PNTR. I urge the Chinese authorities to recognize the length of time Ngawang has already spent in prison and to move now before his 18 year sentence becomes a death sentence. I urge the immediate release of Ngawang Choephel.

I have not come to this position of opposition to PNTR easily. For the past 10 years, I have supported engagement with China and renewal of most favored nation status. The benefits of international trade for the Vermont economy are very clear, and Vermont businesses have proved very resourceful at developing high paying and desirable jobs for Vermonters. In 1989, in the wake of the Tiananmen Square uprising, this was a particularly tough position. It was difficult to know how to channel my profound outrage over Chinese behavior and how to bring about the greatest degree of change in the shortest period of time. After considerable research and much discussion with people holding many points of view, I concluded that change in China would be most rapid if the channels of communication were open to the rest of the world. Engagement with China on all fronts, including economic engagement, is going to be necessary to produce the long-term, systemic change required for expression of personal freedom and personal initiative.

The past decade has proven that change is slow and difficult. But there is progress, nonetheless. The reformers in the Chinese hierarchy are now pushing for membership in the World Trade Organization, WTO. They wish to be part of the global trading system and to open their country and their economy to international investment and influences. While there are some significant problems with the WTO system that need to be addressed, I am convinced that we must be a part of that system and we must exert a strong influence on its development. Our national interests are best served if all major economies are a part of this system, agree to play by the same rules, and are subject to the same enforcement mechanisms if they do not.

We have a very strong interest in encouraging diversification and decentralization in the Chinese economy and greater freedom of expression for Chinese citizens. The less citizens are dependent directly on the government for their jobs and housing, the more likely they are to get involved in local issues, to advocate for causes that concern them, to develop advocacy and democracy at the grass roots. In the long run, I believe this is also the best way to improve the human rights situation. It will take time. It will be incremental. Chinese society will never look just like American society, but hopefully it will be reconfigured more to the advantage of the average Chinese citizen.

Today, my overwhelming concern is for a young man who committed his life to the preservation of his own musical heritage. He found shelter in the green mountains of Vermont, even though his heart always lay in the rugged mountains of his homeland. Ngawang touched many Vermonters with his quiet manner and intensity of purpose. Vermont will not forget Ngawang Choephel. I have not forgotten Ngawang Choephel. I will not vote for PNTR until he is free.

Mr. President, the United States is now considering a bill authorizing the President to grant Permanent Normal Trade Relations to the People's Republic of China when that country joins the World Trade Organization. This can radically improve our relationship with the world's most populous country.

There is so much at stake, in my view. That is why I traveled last month to China to meet with China's leadership and some of its people, to see for myself what is happening in China, and to ensure that I make a well-informed decision on this day.

Some of what I saw, quite frankly, disturbed me. But I also saw and heard encouraging things that gave me hope about China's future. And I have concluded that the best way to promote positive change in China is to grant China permanent normal trade relations status.

Many Americans, including environmental activists and members of organized labor and human rights groups, believe this vote is about far more than trade. And I agree. We cannot consider trade policy without understanding the implications for the economy, our society, and the environment in America and the world.

Moreover, the granting of PNTR would eliminate the annual debate over granting normal trade relations, which we used to call MFN, to China. That annual debate allowed us to review all aspects of our relationship with China and developments in that country. Successive administrations and Congresses achieved progress on issues of importance to Americans by raising them in the context of that annual review.

This time, however, we are not merely considering whether China has made sufficient progress in economic, social, environmental and human rights reforms to merit extending the opening of our market -- China's largest export market -- for another year. Rather, we are considering whether China is on a firm enough course of progress that we can justify an act of faith and open our market permanently as China joins the WTO and substantially opens its markets to American goods and services.

I went so I could better understand China and raise my concerns with China's leaders about human rights, labor conditions, national security and the environment. I went to see for myself the condition of China's cities and rural areas, to compare the wealthy coast and the underdeveloped interior, to talk to garment workers and farmers, to assess the extent of freedom of religion and freedom of speech, to measure progress on human rights protection and environmental protection, and to look into the proliferation of weapons and the intimidation of Taiwan, to consider the abuse of power and the rule of law.

China presented a very mixed picture. The patriotic Catholic Bishop in Shanghai, Bishop Jin, expressed it well when he said, "China is very complicated." One thing was obvious: China is undergoing a tremendous transformation as a result of Deng Xiaoping's 1978 decision to open China to the world. The past two decades have seen the rise of free enterprise and international trade, and many of the Chinese people have experienced a dramatic improvement in their standard of living. China's GDP growth, while surely lower than official estimates, has averaged more than 6 percent over the past two decades and remains strong despite the impact of the Asian financial crisis. China's economic development is amazing, particularly in the modern city of Shanghai.

I would like to speak briefly about some of the issues I raised with China's leaders and that will need to be addressed as we proceed in our strengthened relationship with China.

We have to consider the national security aspects of the U.S.-China relationship. The United States and China are not natural or historic enemies. But serious problems and tensions exist.

One key issue is China's proliferation of technologies and materials for missiles and weapons of mass destruction. Earlier this year, the CIA reported on China's continuing missile-related aid to Pakistan, Iran, North Korea and Libya, as well as nuclear cooperation with Iran and contributions to Iran's chemical weapons program. These relationships are not in China's interest and directly threaten U.S. interests.

When I raised this issue, Vice Premier Qian Qichen acknowledged that China provided missile assistance to Pakistan in the past but insisted it had not done so in recent years. Premier Zhu Rongji dismissed my concerns and demanded evidence of China's proliferation activities. Of course, China has not accepted the key Annex to the Missile Technology Control Regime. I hope China will acknowledge its past mistakes and fully commit itself to international non-proliferation efforts.

A second national security issue concerns Taiwan. Wang Daohan, the Chinese official who conducts the Cross-Straits Dialogue for the Mainland and influences China's policy toward Taiwan, stressed to us that Beijing is willing to give Taiwan considerable autonomy if Taipei accepts the "One China" policy and supports reunification. I am not convinced that making Taipei's acceptance of the "One China" policy a pre-condition for talks is a constructive approach.

I hope that China will withdraw its missiles that are only directed at Taiwan, because these threaten an arms race over Taiwan. As I told Mr. Wang, if you're extending a hand of peace it cannot be clenched into an iron fist.

We also need to consider protection for human rights and the rule of law in China. Fortunately, the House addressed these issues constructively in the bill before us by providing for an annual review of human rights in China. The bill before us also rightly authorizes U.S. assistance for rule of law programs in China. I know that the Ford Foundation and other private groups are supporting rule of law efforts in China. We should be prepared to put some of our resources toward achieving this worthy, if long-term, goal.

The limited ability of the Chinese people to have freedom of religion is a very real concern. The Chinese people, many of whom recognize the vacuousness of Marxist and Maoist rhetoric, are unsatisfied with their daily lives and seek a higher moral purpose, a spiritual side to life. We saw some Chinese practicing recognized religions in permitted places, but others are not so fortunate. Buddhists pray and burn incense at a temple near the Great Buddha in Leshan. Catholics attend Mass at patriotic Catholic Churches or in private homes used by the underground Catholic Church. Muslims pray at the mosque in Xian. But Muslims in Northwest China, who are not ethnically Chinese, cannot worship freely.

Judaism is not a recognized religion, so it is illegal. Practitioners of Falun Gong are arrested virtually every day when they do their exercises on Tiananmen Square or in other public places. And no member of any religion is allowed to proselytize freely, even though spreading the word is a key element of many faiths.

While Senator Harkin and I did not have the opportunity to visit Tibet, I remain concerned about efforts to suppress Tibetan culture and religion. I hope the Chinese government will enter into dialogue with the Dalai Lama -- without preconditions -- with the aim of allowing him to return to Tibet as a spiritual leader.

So is there freedom of religion in China? I think a typical Chinese answer might be "Yes, within limits." Freedom of speech is similarly limited. Pre-publication censorship through approved publishing houses ensures that the Chinese government can review and approve the content of any published work. Some books have been banned, recalled and destroyed after publication because a senior party member or official found them offensive.

One of China's most egregious laws, under which people could be jailed as "counter-revolutionary," was repealed in 1997. But hundreds or perhaps thousands of people sentenced under that statute remain locked up.

Perhaps the worst element of China's totalitarian state and arbitrary rule is the system of "re-education through labor." Under this system, people can be deprived of their freedom for up to three years by the decision of a local police board -- without ever being charged with a crime, much less having a fair trial. While indications suggest a change in the "re-education" system may be in the works, I hope China will eliminate it entirely.

Further, I was disturbed by the Chinese government's efforts to suppress dissenting voices. Our Chinese hosts refused to pursue our request to meet with Bao Tong, a former government official imprisoned for warning Tiananmen Square demonstrators of the impending crackdown, saying it was "too sensitive." We will not forget the crackdown on democracy protesters in Tiananmen Square, nor will we sweep current human rights problems under the rug. That is not the mission. I am hopeful that a renewed United States- China relationship will yield better respect for human rights in China.

China's environmental policies are another serious concern. During the discussions in Kyoto about the world's climate, China insisted that only the U.S. and other developed countries should have to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. But China is the fourth largest and the most populous country in the world, so addressing global climate change will demand China's participation.

I raised these concerns with China's senior leaders and later with China's Environment Minister, Xie Zhenhua, at the State Environmental Protection Administration. The reaction I got was decidedly mixed. Minister Xie described China's concerted efforts to address environmental problems. For example, China has reduced annual soft coal production, and thus consumption, from 1.3 to 1.2 billion tons, with a goal of a further reduction to 1 billion tons, to reduce sulfur dioxide and particulate emissions and improve air quality. China is also increasing use of natural gas and has taken steps to remove the worst- polluting vehicles from the country's roads. However, Minister Xie then launched into a diatribe, saying that the U.S. bears principal responsibility for the degradation of the Earth's environment and that China has a right to pollute so it can develop economically.

I certainly hope recognition of the importance of environmental protection in China and global climate change will overcome the stale rhetoric of the old North-South economic discussions, so the U.S., China and other countries can join together to address common concerns. And I am hopeful that increased trade will foster more cooperation on that issue, including sales of environmentally sound American technology.

Many Americans are also rightly concerned about the working conditions and the rights of Chinese workers, particularly since American firms that follow American labor laws have to compete with Chinese producers.

Certainly, migrant workers in southeastern China -- including underage workers -- are exploited. And workers in China cannot meaningfully organize to protect their interests. China has strong labor laws, but enforcement is clearly lacking.

I visited a state-owned factory in Leshan, in Sichuan province, which produces equipment for power generation. Workers using large machine tools and working with large metal components had no protection for their eyes or ears, no hard hats and no steel-toed boots, as would be required in the U.S. Their work was clearly hard and dangerous, the hours long and the pay meager.

I also visited a garment factory in Shenzhen, the Special Economic Zone established 20 years ago near the border with Hong Kong. The factory manager told me workers are usually on the job for 40 hours a week, occasionally putting in overtime when the factory is busy. Workers themselves meekly said they probably work about 12 hours a day. But my staff looked through the rack of time cards near the door and discovered that virtually all of these textile workers arrive before 8 a.m., take a short lunch break and clock out after 10 p.m. -- working nearly 14 hours a day, 7 days a week. And that earns them wages of 80 or 90 U.S. dollars per month, a bunk in a dormitory and meals.

Senator Harkin and I visited a factory near Shanghai that produces clothing for Liz Claiborne. The company appeared to be making a real effort to enforce fair labor association standards. We could see the results in working conditions. For example, the factory was well-lit and well-ventilated, even air-conditioned. Liz Claiborne's interventions led to the construction of a fire escape, and the workers' rights were clearly posted near the entrance. A Liz Claiborne representative on site not only ensures the quality of the product but also monitors compliance with China's labor laws limiting overtime hours.

Unfortunately, not all American and other foreign firms are as responsible. When I was in Hong Kong, the South China Morning Post had a front-page story about child labor in a factory in Guandong Province producing toys for McDonald's Happy Meals. Indeed, the toy industry is probably the most notorious for looking the other way as its Chinese suppliers exploit their workers. The bottom line is that trade with the United States and U.S. investment does not automatically lead to better working conditions and fairer treatment for Chinese workers. American and other foreign companies need to make fair labor standards a real condition of their business relationships.

Our annual reviews of Most Favored Nation treatment of China have provided important leverage with Beijing. Congress reviewed issues of importance to us, and members of the House and Senate and Administration officials raised these concerns with Chinese officials. Many times, China took significant steps to show progress, and arguably future-oriented leaders used the opportunity to promote reforms. Under H.R. 4444, a commission will still look at China's human rights record and other concerns each year, but without the implicit leverage of a vote on MFN.

Some have suggested we vote down PNTR to maintain our annual vote and the associated leverage. After all, China will still be interested in selling goods in the U.S. market, though we would not have access to WTO rules and dispute settlement mechanisms.

However, voting down PNTR would not simply maintain the status quo. Chinese leaders -- and many Chinese citizens -- see this debate on PNTR legislation as a referendum on the U.S.-China relationship. Rejecting PNTR means rejecting any hope of a cooperative relationship with China in the near-term. And cooperation, too, has yielded important progress. On the national security front, the U.S. and China have cooperated to promote peace and reconciliation on the Korean Peninsula. And the WTO contains a national security exception that will allow us to maintain technological controls and other national security restrictions on trade. On the human rights front, China has signed the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, though the National People's Congress has yet to ratify it. The presence of American firms willing to forego some of their profits to treat workers decently has helped raise standards of working conditions.

China is going to have access to the U.S. market regardless of how we vote. If we grant PNTR to China, however, we will gain the benefit of WTO dispute settlement mechanisms to better ensure China's commitment to free trade. By granting PNTR, we do give up the right to review China's trade status annually, but we can advance our agenda on non-economic issues through increased dialogue, by bringing China into multilateral agreements and institutions, and through stronger bilateral cooperation.

As I discussed earlier, China's economic growth over the past two decades has been staggering, as a result of its opening to the world some 20 years ago. China has risen to become the world's ninth largest exporter and the eleventh largest importer.

In November 1999, we completed a landmark Bilateral Trade Agreement with China, which is contingent on our approving PNTR. In that agreement, China pledged to reduce tariffs on a number of imports. For example, all tariffs on information technology products such as semiconductors, telecommunications equipment, computers and computer equipment are to be eliminated by 2005. Tariffs on industrial products would decline from a simple average of 24.6 percent to 9.4 percent.

The agreement also opens China's markets in a wide range of services, including banking, insurance, telecommunications, distribution, professional services and other business services. China is expected to join the WTO's Basic Telecommunications Agreement and end geographic restrictions on wireless services and its ban on foreign investment in telecommunication. Such changes are good not only for China but for America.

But establishing Permanent Normal Trade Relations is something we can do only once. Some economists have raised serious questions about whether we have gained enough access to China's markets for goods and services. Did USTR's negotiators get a good deal? I think that's a difficult question to answer now. Our annual trade deficit with China stands at a shocking $56.9 billion.

One key factor which will determine how good a deal we got is compliance. How well will China fulfill its obligations? Through China's WTO accession and the establishment of PNTR, we will be able to hold China accountable for its trade commitments through the WTO's transparent, rules-based dispute settlement mechanisms. If China arbitrarily increases a tariff on an American product or engages in retaliatory actions against the U.S., we could seek redress under WTO regulations.

How effectively will we monitor compliance and use these mechanisms and our trade laws to bring China's laws and practices into line? This is a very serious question. China is a large country -- nearly the size of the United States -- and the application of national laws is grossly inconsistent across the country. Moreover, U.S. firms doing business there seem to understand their immense reliance on the goodwill of China's government and Communist Party. Will these firms be willing to risk a deal in Guangzhou by asking USTR to pursue action against arbitrary and discriminatory treatment in Inner Mongolia? Or will American firms continue to emphasize cooperation with Chinese authorities?

This bill rightly stresses the need for the U.S. government to monitor China's compliance with its trade obligations and use the WTO's dispute settlement mechanisms. But if we fail to grant PNTR for China, WTO dispute mechanisms will not be available to us.

Mr. President, China is already America's fourth largest trading partner. According to administration statistics, American exports to China and Hong Kong support an estimated 400,000 well-paying U.S. jobs.

China's WTO accession and the 1999 bilateral agreement will further open China's markets to American goods and services and protects American intellectual property rights. I believe will prove to be a good deal for America's working families.

New Jersey undoubtedly stands to benefit from China's accession to the WTO and improved market access. At the end of 1998, China ranked as New Jersey's ninth largest export destination, with merchandise exports worth $668 million. Important New Jersey firms, such as Lucent Technologies and Chubb Insurance, are already active in China and will have more opportunities as a result of China's market opening under the 1999 bilateral trade deal.

Mr. President, there are some potential risks in granting permanent normal trade relations to China now. While I have concerns about China's record in the areas I have outlined, I believe that China is undergoing momentous change. The best way to promote continued progress on issues of concern and help our economy is to grant China permanent normal trade relations status.

Mr. President, one would think from the comments made by my distinguished friend from New Jersey and others that the issue was the welfare and benefit of the People's Republic of China. I have no particular gripe at this moment about China. I think, as the Senator from New Jersey pointed out, it is working. China has a very competitive trade policy. They are making improvements industrially, economically, even environmentally, and perhaps with labor standards. That is not the issue.

The issue is the viable, competitive trade policy of the United States of America. You would think that we had the finest, most wonderfully competitive trade policy there could be. The fact is, we have a $350 billion trade deficit that we know of, and this year, 2000, it is going to approximate $400 billion.

Let me say a word about that. I know something about both. I have both. I would much rather have BMW than Oracle or Microsoft. Why do I say that? BMW is paying $21 an hour. A third of Microsoft's workers are paid $10 an hour, part time, temporary workers, Silicon Valley. Forty- two percent of the workers in Silicon Valley are part-time, temporary workers. I am not looking for temporary jobs. I am looking for hardcore middle America jobs.

That is the competition. The competition in global competition is market share and jobs. We treat foreign trade as foreign aid. Free trade, free trade. They say: You don't understand high tech. The truth is, we have a deficit in the balance of trade in advanced technology products with the People's Republic of China. Last year, it was $3.2 billion. It will approximate $5 billion this year.

But Senator, agriculture. Agriculture? There is a glut of agriculture in the People's Republic. Once they solve their transportation and distribution problems, they are not only going to feed the 1.3 billion, but the rest of the world. Come now, the 800 million farmers they have at the moment can certainly outproduce the 3.5 million farmers we have in America.

We had a deficit in the balance of trade of $218 million last year with the People's Republic of China. People don't understand where we are. I have a deficit in the balance of trade of cotton. I am importing cotton from the People's Republic of China.

They say: Wait a minute, what about the airplanes? Well, yes, they have orders for 1,600, we just heard a minute ago. We will cut that in half. That is really 800, because 50 percent, according to Bill Greider of the 777 Boeing plane, is going to be made in downtown Shanghai. The MD 3010, 70 percent of that aircraft is made in the People's Republic of China. So what are we doing? Are we transferring all of the wonderful middle-class American jobs to China? And we are running all over the country hollering, "I am for the working families, I am for the working families," when, since NAFTA, they have eliminated 30,700 working families in my little State of South Carolina. We lost over 500,000 over the Nation. So we are eliminating working families, and we say, "But China is going to really start enforcing and adhering and be made accountable." Not at all.

Japan is not. Incidentally, Japan has been in the WTO for 5 years and it hasn't opened up yet. I don't know where they get the idea that once we get this particular agreement and China in the WTO, it is going to open its market. That doesn't open markets. Otherwise accountable? The People's Republic see what happened with the United States and Japan and with the United States and the United Kingdom. The President was up in New York the week before last with Prime Minister Blair, and the Prime Minister is fighting for a thousand jobs, and the President of the United States is exporting them like gang busters and fighting for bananas that we don't even produce. Fighting for bananas. Come on. When are we going to sober up and get a competitive trade policy?

For a second, I don't have the idea that we ought to cut off trade; that is ridiculous because it is impossible. We are going to trade with China. I just want to cut the word "permanent" out and have a look- see and try to get organized a trade policy whereby we can correlate 20 different departments and agencies, our Department of Commerce and Trade, and start really competing in a controlled global economy.

The fight there, of course, as I see it, is for market share. The fight is for jobs. We are not doing it. I guess my time is pretty well limited.

Alexander Hamilton enunciated the competitive trade policy of the People's Republic of China in 1789. The first was for the Seal of the United States. The second bill that passed this Congress in July 1789 was a 50-percent tariff on 60 articles. Protectionism. We learn how to build up. The Brits suggested to us that we trade with them what we produce best and they trade back what they produce best. Free trade, free trade. Hamilton, in his writing "Report on Manufacturers," told the Brits: Bug off, we are not going to remain your colony, exporting our raw materials, our agriculture, our timber, our iron ore, and importing your manufactured products. And therein is the policy of the People's Republic of China. I welcome it. I welcome the competition. But you can't find it here in the Congress. You can't find it in the Presidential race.

You would think we had a good policy of some kind. Nothing on the floor. People are coming up here, like myself, reciting their little positions, with no debate. Somebody said "invigorating debate." They couldn't care less. This vote has been fixed. This thing has been fixed since midsummer. You know it and I know it. They will give you time. There is nobody seated on the other side. Let the Record show that. Absolutely nobody is in a chair on the Republican side of the Senate as I speak.

Dick Durbin

Mr. President, I make the following unanimous consent request. I understand 6 minutes is left of the Democratic leader's time. Senator Wellstone asked for 10 minutes. I ask unanimous consent to follow Senator Wellstone and to speak for 6 minutes on the Democratic leader's time, unless a Republican Member comes to the floor, at which point I will yield to them to speak.

Paul Wellstone

Mr. President, I thank my colleague, Senator Hollings from South Carolina, for his remarks. Let me say to my colleague from South Carolina, I can't imagine the Senate without Senator Hollings -- the color, the power of the oratory and, frankly, being willing to stand by the courage of his convictions. He is a great Senator.

Mr. President, every Senator should read this editorial today before they vote. I came to the floor of the Senate with an amendment. It merits a report from a commission we had established, to report back to us, a Commission on Religious Freedom, chaired by David Sapperstein. The commission looked at the situation in China and it made a recommendation to us. The commission's recommendation was, right now in China, as evidenced by what happened to this Catholic bishop, an 81- year-old bishop imprisoned for being a Catholic, that it is a brutal atmosphere and we in the Senate and the House of Representatives ought to at least reserve for ourselves the right to annually review trade relations with China so we can have some leverage to speak out on human rights. That amendment lost.

I brought another amendment to the floor. I said based upon China's agreement with the United States in 1991, a memorandum of understanding, and then another agreement in 1993, which the President used as evidence that we would delink human rights with trade policy with China, we should call on China to live up to its agreement that it would not export to this country products made by prison labor. Many of these people are in prison because they have spoken out for democracy and human rights. That amendment lost.

I brought another amendment to the floor of the Senate, which was an amendment that said men and women in China should have the right to organize and bargain collectively; they should be able to form an independent union. I cited as evidence Kathy Lee and Wal-Mart paying 8 cents an hour from 8 in the morning until 10 at night -- mainly to young women. They get 1 day off a month. I said shouldn't we at least say we want to extend the right to annually review trade relations until China lives up to this standard? That amendment lost.

Then I offered an amendment with Senator Helms from North Carolina, a broad human rights amendment, citing one human rights report after another saying that China needed to live up to the basic standard of decency when it comes to respecting the human rights of its people. That is a sacred issue to me -- anywhere in the world. That amendment lost.

I want to conclude my remarks on the floor of the Senate in three ways. First, I hope I am wrong, but I believe we will deeply regret the stampede to pass this legislation and the way in which we have taken all the human rights, religious freedom, right to organize, all of those concerns, and we have put them in parentheses and in brackets as if they don't exist and are not important. I think we will regret that. I think we will regret that because if we truly understand the implications of living in an international economy, it means this.

It means that if we care about human rights, we have to care about human rights in every country. If we care about the environment -- not just in our country -- if we care about the right to organize -- not just in our country -- if we care about deplorable child labor conditions, we have to be concerned about that in every country. When we as the Senate and as Senators do not speak out on human rights, we are all diminished. When we have not spoken out on human rights in China, I think our silence is a betrayal.

I have heard my colleagues argue "exports, exports." I have spoken plenty about this legislation, and I will not repeat everything I said but just to say I think the evidence is pretty clear. Not more exports but more investment -- there is a difference.

I think what will happen is China will become the largest export platform with low-wage labor under deplorable working conditions exporting products abroad, including to our country, and our workers will lose their jobs. Frankly, we will be talking about not raising the living standard of working people but lowering the living standard.

On agriculture, I think there was a piece in the New York Times on Sunday. Every day there is an article in the newspaper about China. It is not a pretty picture. It is as if many of my colleagues want to turn their gaze away from the glut in production -- about the protests, about people being arrested for the protests.

Frankly, as to the argument that we are going to have many more exports to China and that is going to be the salvation of family farmers -- the President of the United States came out to Minnesota and basically made that argument -- we can have different views about human rights and whether or not there will be more respect for human rights as we have more economic trade relations in China, but so far that is not the evidence. I can understand how people honestly disagree. I don't believe that most-favored-nation status or normal trade relations with China is the salvation of family farmers for this country.

I want my words in this debate to be heard. I want to stick by these words, and I want to be held accountable. I want every other colleague who has made such a claim, that this will be the salvation for our family farmers in this country, to also be held accountable.

Finally, I say to Senators that I believe we will lose this. And people in good conscience have different viewpoints. I can't help speaking with some strong feeling at the end of this debate to say this: I will look at this debate and vote with a sense of history. One- hundred years ago, our economy was changing. We were moving to a national economy -- industrialized national economy. You had farmers, laborers, religious communities, populists, and women. And they made a set of standards. They wanted an 8-hour day. They wanted to abolish some of the worst child labor conditions -- antitrust action; women wanted the right to vote; direct election of U.S. Senators. They wanted the right to organize and bargain collectively. The Pinkertons were killing labor organizers. The media were hostile. Money dominated politics. But many of those demands became the law of the land over the years and made our country better. So it is today. This is the new economy. It is an emerging global economy.

What we were saying is we want to civilize the global economy and make it work -- not just the large conglomerates. We want this new global economy to work for the environment; to work for family farmers and producers; to work for human rights; to work for religious freedom; to work for workers. That is what this debate has been about.

I think this will become where you stand in relation to this new global economy. I think it can become some kind of axis of American politics over the next 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 years to come.

Harry Reid

Mr. President, on behalf of the leader, Senator Daschle, I yield 30 minutes to Senator Byrd, 5 minutes to Senator Baucus, and 15 minutes to Senator Moynihan. I say to my Democratic colleagues, that is all the time we have. Senators shouldn't ask for an extension of time because there is no more time on the Democratic side.

Mr. President, I rise today in support of Permanent Normal Trade Relations with China. Today the United States Senate will vote to grant PNTR to China and its 1.2 billion people. We will decide whether or not to allow American farmers, manufacturers, businessmen and women to trade their products, their ideas, their goods with one-fifth of the world's population.

Last November, after more than a decade of negotiations, the Clinton Administration signed a bilateral agreement that will drastically reduce barriers on American products and services going to China. The agreement is clearly in the best interests of our nation's farmers, manufacturers, and workers. Supporting China's entry into the WTO is clearly in the best interests of our economy, national security and foreign policy.

Trade is the future. Make no mistake about it: trade can open up the exchange of ideas -- ideas like democracy, freedom of speech, freedom to worship, and freedom of association. China stands on the brink of becoming the most important trading partner the U.S. has ever seen and the U.S. Senate will go on record in support of this important step in international trade and foreign policy.

When China concludes similar agreements with other countries, it will join the WTO. For us to benefit though, we must grant China PNTR status -- the same status we have given other countries in the WTO. And, Mr. President, that's what this debate is about. Do we give China the same status as the other countries already in the WTO? Do we put them in an environment where they will have to follow the rules and be held accountable if they break them?

Many of my colleagues have come to the floor of the United States Senate over the last several weeks to offer amendments to this legislation. They've all been defeated, with my help, despite the fact that I agree with the intention of almost everyone of them. I voted against every amendment offered because I know and the American people watching this debate know that amending H.R. 4444, at this point in the process is a death knell.

We defeated goodfaith amendments like Senator Thompson's non- proliferation amendment, Senator Wellstone's religious freedom and right to organize amendments, and Senator Helms' amendment regarding forced abortions. I agree with the intent of my colleagues. China should not engage in the proliferation of nuclear technology. China should not prevent workers from organizing. China should not force women to adhere to any type of "one family, one child" policy.

But, the bill we're debating is a trade bill. And if it's changed in any way, shape, or form, it will go back to the House of Representatives and die.

My friend in the House of Representatives, Rep. Sander Levin, successfully added language to the House-passed legislation that, I believe, holds China accountable. The Levin/Bereuter language establishes a formal Congressional-Executive Commission on China to institutionalize mechanisms for maintaining pressure on China to improve its human rights record, increase compliance with basic labor standards, and abide by current and future commitments. This commission would review and report on China's progress in these areas and make recommendations to the Administration and Congress. My friends who offered amendments regarding human rights on the floor of the Senate will be able in the future to review China's record in this important area.

The Levin proposal would also push for more transparency at the WTO, including urging prompt public release of all litigation-related documents and the opening of secret meetings of the dispute settlement panels. The United States pays dues to the WTO and we have a right to know what goes on in those meetings. I've heard over and over again about the secrecy of the WTO. It's time for the WTO to shed some light on what really happens in these meetings that affect real American workers, so that workers will be able to see that we can rely on their rules-based trading system for relief when and if it's needed.

The Levin-Bereuter proposal empowers the Congress by seeking special congressional review of U.S. participation in the WTO two years after China's accession, to assess China's implementation of WTO commitments. We'll have the power to see just how well China is abiding by its commitments.

And finally, the legislation expresses congressional support for Taiwan's accession to the WTO immediately after China's accession. While the Chinese aren't happy about this provision, I believe that it's important to allow Taiwan the same trading rights as mainland China.

America began as an agrarian nation, then transformed itself into an industrial power, and now over 200 years later, we're the leading economy in the world due, in part, to our ability to recognize that competition can force a country or a company to excel or fail. America has never feared competition.

And it's a reality that global competition is here and it's here to stay. Opponents argue that we must stop globalization, that we must punish the Chinese for all their human rights abuses, for prison labor abuses, for Tiananmen Square. Every year, we vote on whether or not to grant NTR status to China. Throughout my time in the House and Senate, I've voted both for and against NTR. Every year, we take a look at how China treats its citizens, wondering whether or not our annual review of their trade status would change their behavior.

Many say that the Congress shouldn't give up that right to annual review -- that if we annually examine how the Chinese treat their people, and based upon that, deny or give them preferred trading status, somehow they will clean up their act and guarantee every Chinese citizen basic human rights. It's time we changed our approach. It's time to bring democracy to China via the Internet, via U.S./Chinese commerce relationships, via other U.S. products. It's time to bring social progress to China, not with messages from Congress but messages from across America, from businesses, labor traders, educators with new access to a society too often closed to diverse opinion.

President Clinton noted recently that "In the new century, liberty will spread by cell phone and cable modem." Take a look at America with access to the Internet and now think back to the days when access to world knowledge was only through the printed media. America is a different nation because of this progress and China has the potential to change too.

Think for a moment about what would happen if we denied PNTR to China. I believe that if we sent that signal to the Chinese people, the walls of isolation would be strengthened. The hardline Communists would be emboldened more so than before. If we vote against PNTR, Beijing won't free a single prisoner. They will turn inward and the limited freedoms the Chinese people currently enjoy could well disappear.

And this argument ignores our experience with the Soviet Union during the height of the Cold War. We spent trillions of dollars to oppose a regime that was rife with human rights abuses, yet we still sold them, in the words of the late Hubert Humphrey, "just about anything they could not shoot at us." China will enter the WTO, with or without our support. The questions is: will America benefit from it or will the Chinese buy products and services from the Europeans or the Canadians or the Mexicans? To me, it's a clear choice: Americans will benefit from free and fair trade with China. And China will change for the better as it opens its doors to the world.

The average tariff for agriculture products will be 17.5 percent and, for U.S. priority products, 14 percent, down from 31 percent. Farmers in downstate Illinois, will benefit from this; there's no doubt about it. At present, China severely restricts trading rights and the ability to own and operate distribution networks. For the first time, Illinois exporters will have the right to distribute products without going through a State Owned Enterprise. Illinois is already a significant exporter of farm and industrial goods. In 1999, Illinois exported $9.3 billion worth of industrial/agriculture machinery. We shipped just over $6 billion in electric equipment as well. Illinois farmers exported roughly $3 billion in commodities to other countries. Illinois exports in 1999 totaled over $33 billion. Of that, $850 million was sold to China.

Companies like Motorola (with over 25,000 employees in Illinois) which pays tariffs of 20 percent on pagers and 12 percent for phones, will see those tariffs slashed. The Illinois soybean farmer will see the tariff-rate quotas completely eliminated.

Banks will be able to conduct business in China within the first two years of accession. They will have the same rights as Chinese banks. Geographic and customer restrictions will be lifted in five years, thereby allowing them to open a branch anywhere in China, just like they can here. U.S. automakers, like the Chrysler plant in Belvedere, Illinois, will see tariffs on their products slashed from 100 percent to 25 percent.

Pike County, Illinois pork producers will be able, for the first time, to export pork to China. Under the current scheme, China's import barriers have effectively denied access to American pork products. We're talking tariffs in the range of 20 percent that will drop to 12 percent by 2004.

What about Illinois steelworkers, still reeling from the 1998 steel crisis? China will reduce its tariffs on steel and steel products from the current average of 10.3 percent to 6 percent. They've agreed that any entity, like Acme Steel with facilities in Riverdale and Chicago or Northwestern Wire and Rod in Sterling, will be able to export into any part of China, phased in over 3 years.

Peoria-based Caterpillar, with almost 30,000 Illinois employees, has recently invested in several new facilities in China. They've also recently announced the sale of 18 new trucks to the Shanghai Coal Company, trucks that will be made in Decatur, Illinois, and shipped halfway around the world. This is the type of investment by Caterpillar that maintains local jobs throughout towns and cities across Illinois.

In 1997, 82 percent of all U.S. exporters were small businesses, generating over 35 percent of total merchandise exported to the East. Paperwork burdens for America's small businesses will be reduced drastically as customs and licensing procedures will be simplified. America's small businesses don't export jobs to China. They export ideas and products to a people who need and want their products and services.

No one expects this trade agreement and our future relationship with China to be easy. Already, Beijing officials have begun backtracking on several of their commitments made last November. I understand that at the most recent session of the WTO Working Party on China's accession, China objected to having its implementation of trade obligations reviewed every other year. A Chinese proposal dated July 14th strikes language in the protocol referring to bi-annual reviews and replaces it with language providing for reviews every four years. Their rationale is that they're a "developing" country.

This is absolutely unacceptable. The fact is, China is not a typically developing country and it shouldn't be allowed to cloak itself in that status. It's a uniquely large country and economy, where the essential elements of a market economy are taking root. Four years is far too long a time between reviews of China's implementation. If this proposal were adopted, it would make WTO dispute settlement the only formal channel by which we could ensure China's fulfillment of its trade obligations. Just one example: if China automatically received developing country status, it would receive special treatment like allowable export subsidies that wouldn't be treated as subsidies. If the Chinese flooded the U.S. market with steel (as is the case now), the U.S. steel industry wouldn't be able to use U.S. countervailing duty trade laws because that law doesn't apply to subsidization for developing countries. There are other areas where the Chinese would like to backpedal. But, Mr. President, we must hold them to the November agreement and discourage future backtracking of that agreement by Chinese trade officials. Any unwillingness by the Chinese to abide by this agreement at this point should be roundly condemned by this Administration and other foreign nations, who just might find the Chinese backtracking with them as well.

Trade with foreign countries means nothing if it's not carried out under a rules-based system. Trade commitments require full enforcement to have meaning. With China's WTO membership, we will gain a number of advantages in enforcement we do not currently enjoy.

First, there is the WTO dispute mechanism itself. Remember that China has never agreed to subject its decisions to impartial review, judgment, and possible sanctions if necessary. That will now happen.

Second, we will continue to have the right to use the full range of American trade laws, including Section 301 and our Anti-dumping/ Countervailing Duty laws. It's important, though, to have an administration that will use these trade laws effectively. It's my hope that the next President will not hesitate to bring cases against China and other countries if they break our trade laws.

And finally, we strengthen our enforcement capabilities through the multilateral nature of the WTO. In effect, China will be subject to enforcement by all 135 WTO member nations, thus limiting their ability to play its trading partners against one another. The U.S. won't be alone if China breaks the rules.

Opponents of PNTR argue that it's NAFTA all over again. You'll remember Ross Perot's soundbite: "That great sucking sound." You'll remember that some said the American economy would go down the tubes, that hundreds of thousands of American workers would lose their jobs to cheap labor in Mexico if NAFTA were enacted.

Here's Illinois' story. Gross jobs added in export industries from 1993-1998 totaled over 60,000. Net jobs totaled almost 40,000. There was no great sucking sound. US unemployment is still low. There are more people employed in Illinois right now than at any time in its history. The Illinois Department of Commerce estimates that nearly half a million jobs are supported by exports and that there's been a 51.6 percent increase in Illinois jobs sustained by exports since enactment of NAFTA.

Yes, some folks have lost their jobs due to trade. The Department of Labor certified 50 Trade Adjustment Assistance cases in Illinois from 1994-1999, totaling 5,718 jobs lost. Frankly, losing 5,718 jobs is still too many. When workers lose their jobs, we should do more than just provide TAA. We should find ways to train our workers in emerging fields and industries so they get new jobs that are at least as good as the ones they lost. That's the responsibility of the American business community, educators, and federal, state, and local governments. This is the best opportunity we've had in years to export American ideals and products. We should also ensure we don't export American jobs.

Worker re-training is one of the most important debates that this Congress should focus on. Today, we voted on a cloture motion on H1B visas. I have almost 6,000 Illinoisans who've lost their jobs due to trade, yet we have to import workers from foreign countries because we have industries begging for skilled workers to show up for that 9-5 job. Yet, our way of solving the skills shortage in the U.S. seems to be through the importation of highly-skilled foreign workers -- a Band- Aid approach that doesn't solve the underlying problem. America, as a nation that gains from trade, has an obligation to use a portion of those gains to support and re-train those who've been ill-affected. We must do more to help American workers train for and get jobs that will move them up the economic ladder.

In 1998, we passed the Workforce Investment Act. One important component of the WIA is the funding stream for dislocated workers. Grants to states and local communities provide core, intensive training and support services to laid off workers. Under President Clinton, dislocated worker funding has tripled from $517 million in 1993 to $1.589 billion for FY2000. This is an important program, like Trade Adjustment Assistance, that helps American families deal with an economy that's transforming itself as ours is today.

But is it enough? Is it enough to train workers after they lose their jobs or do we need to start before it's too late? With public/private partnerships, we can train America's workforce for the jobs of the 21st Century, the hi-tech jobs, the nursing jobs, the educator jobs. It's our responsibility to encourage companies like Caterpillar and Motorola and Cargill and others to let local, state, and federal officials know what types of workers they must have to meet their needs for the future. We should encourage more Americans to pursue higher education and skills training. I'm working for measures like college tuition tax incentives that would provide tax deductions or credits for America's working families to give their children the opportunity to prepare for the jobs of this new economy. We also need assistance to help workers with skills training and lifelong learning.

Some would argue as Lenin did that a capitalist will sell you the rope you will use to hang him, but I think such trade serves a greater purpose than profit. Information technology, now a key element in the future of business, also is a key element in undermining government control of thought and appetite. If you can flood a nation with modems people use to learn and trade, no government can bridle the expansion of thought and diversity that will follow.

Chinese leaders, recognizing the transformative nature of the free flow of ideas, have tried recently to clamp down on Internet usage by its citizens. This will never work as the authorities in Beijing will learn. China must either give up its desire to build a modern, high- tech economy or allow the free exchange of information that a modern economy requires. I accept the American premise that if you give people a little freedom and enough information, the desire for freedom, democracy and the chance to work hard and succeed will prevail.

You can station Chinese tanks on Tiananmen Square on a full-time basis, but if you let the open exchange of ideas and business transactions flow through those glowing modems, China will change for the better.

Let's grant PNTR to China and begin a new chapter in the book of U.S.-China relations. Bringing down trade barriers; Opening up new markets; Giving American workers a chance to compete; And giving America's customers a chance to enjoy the best our country can produce: It's a formula for success. It's a challenge America has never shirked.

Mr. President, I listened carefully to the debate and statement made by my colleague, Senator Wellstone, as well as Senator Hollings of South Carolina. These two Senators and many others have spoken from the heart during the course of this debate. The Senate of the United States and the Nation are well served by the element they bring to this debate, their deep-felt convictions, feelings, and values that have been exhibited not only in their floor statements but in the amendments they have offered over the last several weeks.

I would like to put this in perspective. If we believe the vote we take this afternoon will give China some new benefit, then one could argue that we should ask for something in return. One could argue that if we are going to give China something, we should ask them to make changes in China in their human rights policy, which is reprehensible -- the way they treat the press, the way they treat religions in that country, their forced family planning policies, the coercive attitude they have towards families and their future in China, the terrible things which we have heard about, proliferation -- all of these should be on the table and part of the agenda as we negotiate, if the agreement we are voting on is, in fact, a benefit given to China. But let me suggest to you it is not. We are receiving the benefit from this agreement. Let me explain.

The World Trade Organization is a group of over 130 nations which have come together and said we are going to do away with the old school of thinking where every country would put up tariffs and barriers to trade with other countries. We are going to try a new approach. We are going to try to drop those tariffs and barriers and see what free trade will do. Let each country make a product and a service the best and sell it around the world. That is what the World Trade Organization is about. Over 130 nations have agreed that those are the rules by which we will play.

Today in the Senate this will be a historic vote to decide whether or not we bring China into the World Trade Organization and compete with U.S. trade policy -- in other words, the relationship between the United States and China. China, in order to be part of this World Trade Organization, has said they will agree to drop our tariffs and barriers substantially so that American companies and farmers and others can export to China. In other words, this is a win-win situation for America's economy. It is China that is making all the decisions to drop the tariffs and drop the barriers and give us a chance to compete -- give us a chance to sell to 1.2 billion people; give us a chance to sell to one-fifth of the world's population. We win; they drop the barriers; America gets a chance to sell overseas. That is what is at stake here.

If this benefit comes to the U.S. economy to be able to finally get into this market and compete, then it is kind of hard to argue that we ought to be holding off and conditioning this benefit on all sorts of changes in China.

I have seen the amendments that have been offered by many of my colleagues on the floor over the last several weeks. Many of these are good faith amendments. Many of these I agree with totally in principle. I voted against every single one of them. How can that be? Because, frankly, they don't belong on this bill. This is a trade bill. Let us address the issues of human rights, workers, environmental concerns, and proliferation by China through a variety of other approaches. But to use this trade bill is a mistake.

This trade bill gives us a chance to say to workers across America that we are going to give them a new market; we are going to give them a new chance. If my colleagues believe as I do that globalization and global competition really are the future of this country, we in America need markets in which to sell. That is what this is about.

I have a lot of confidence that American workers and businesses and farmers, given a chance to compete by fair rules, can succeed. If you believe that, you have to vote for this bill; you have to open this market. You have to give us a chance to sell in what is one of the largest markets in the world. That is what it comes down to.

There is also a provision that was added to the House bill which I support completely. It is known as the Levin/Bereuter amendment. It is a bipartisan amendment by Sandy Levin, a Democrat of Michigan, and Doug Bereuter, Republican of Nebraska. They come together and say China has to play by the rules. And we will watch them carefully with an executive commission to make sure they are not only playing by the trade rules but treating their people fairly.

I think that is the right way to proceed. I think it covers many of the issues raised during the course of this debate. But, frankly, we cannot hold up the expansion of trade opportunities waiting for China to become a democratic nation. In fact, I think expanding trade in exchange will lead China into democracy, into freedom, closer to what we value as principles in this country. Why do I believe that? I saw Tiananmen Square on television. I saw these tanks that were mowing down common citizens standing up for freedom. It was reprehensible. It was disgusting. But we saw it on television. There was a time not that long ago we would have never seen it. We would have heard about it months later. The world is opening up. We are seeing things in real time from around the world, in China and other nations, and as a result the court of world judgment says it is wrong and you have to change it, and the pressure starts building.

Think about expanded economic exchange with China, expanded trade, more foreign visitors, American businesses, American farmers, and educators going into China, becoming part of their economy. Think about this information technology as the Internet opens up China to new thinking and ideas around the world.

Do you know what we believe in this country? We believe if people are given the opportunity to hear diverse opinions, if they are given the opportunity to see what the rest of the world looks like, they will move closer to our model, closer to democracy, closer to freedom, closer to open markets. I believe that, too. I do not believe the Chinese leadership, even their hidebound old thinking, can turn that tide. This bill opens those markets, opens this exchange of ideas and goods, and gives us a chance to not only provide for workers and farmers and businesses in America the chance to succeed in a new market but a chance to change China for the better.

Mr. President, the debate before the United States Senate on our granting China permanent normal trade relations status has been a tremendous debate for the country. We have heard strong arguments for and against enhancing our engagement and expanding trade with China. This debate has implications for our economy, national security, and for the future of China.

Let me say, that is not only desirable from a U.S. standpoint to have China as a full member of the WTO, I think it is essential. China entering the WTO will create unprecedented opportunities for American businesses and farmers, it will encourage the new entrepreneurial forces pushing china toward more liberal political, economic and social policies and it will certainly contribute, if not ultimately lead, to the further stabilization of Asia and the world.

From the standpoint of economic growth, increasing our economic relationship with China is imperative. Increased trade has played an indispensable role in the economic growth this country has experienced in recent decades. The leadership and the growth of American companies has been fueled by American companies winning access to new markets. As many U.S. markets continue to mature, market access will play a more important role for the expansion of our businesses.

At this time, the U.S. has very limited access to a market representing the largest number of consumers in the world. China is a nation of 1.2 billion people, one-fifth of the world's consumers. Over the next 5 years, it is projected that 200 million of those Chinese will enter the middle class. On a massive scale, these are people who will be acquiring for the first time products that we in the United States take for granted. We owe it to our workers and investors to give our companies an equal opportunity to fight for those sales.

Trade is part of the process by which capital, resources and manpower flow to the areas in which we perform best.

Our world leadership in the industries of tomorrow did not happen by accident. In addition to the spirit and ingenuity of the American people, enough policy makers in this country have had the foresight to create an atmosphere where this genius and industry can thrive. Expanding our economic relationship and breaking down barriers to trade with the largest block of consumers in the world is another huge step in that process.

But for me, the best reason to support this relationship is that it is good for my state. Whether it is Missouri's farmers, our workers, or our businesses, Missourians will benefit if China is a member of the WTO.

Reviewing the numbers for American farmers alone gives a picture as to the staggering opportunities in this market. China is currently our fourth largest agricultural market. The U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates that this market will account for 37 percent of the future growth of agricultural exports. And the Chinese have agreed to slash tariffs and eliminate the quotas on several products important to economy of my state -- soybeans, corn, cotton, beef, and pork.

As China eliminates their legal requirements for self-sufficiency in agricultural products, if they remain only 95 percent self-sufficient in corn and wheat, they will instantly become the second biggest importer of those products in the world, second only to Japan. Missouri farmers are ready to compete for those markets.

This is a tremendous opportunity to help our pork producers and cattlemen, both areas in which China has agreed to cut tariffs. Unlike the Europeans, the Chinese are ready for their people to enjoy American beef. They are prepared to eat American beef openly and enjoy it in public. In Europe, only the diplomats who come to the U.S. get to enjoy a good piece of U.S. steak.

The Chinese are going to learn quickly what we know and the European diplomats know, American beef is the best. As those 200 million Chinese enter the middle class, I am confident they will enjoy American beef and want more of it.

The projected increase for demand of pork in China is simply staggering. Rather than go into the numbers, the pork producers estimate that $5 will be added to the price of a hog when we expand our trade relationship with China. That would be the difference between success and failure for small pork producers.

On another issue of great importance to my state and to my farmers, the Chinese have agreed to settle sanitary and phyto-sanitary disputes based on science. What a novel idea. This is essential to avoiding non- tariff trade barriers as our farmers continue to employ biotechnology and advanced agricultural practices.

For example, one company in my state, Copeland, a division of Emerson Electric, manufactures air conditioner compressors in the wonderful town of Ava, MO. Those compressors are sent to China where they are incorporated in units sold all over Asia. As the market for air conditioners in Asia has expanded, the number of manufacturing jobs in Ava have grown. Those jobs will not go to China and if this agreement is passed the manufacturing jobs in the Ava facility are expected to double.

This agreement opens competitive opportunities for businesses of all sizes. Under the market opening agreement, the Chinese will eliminate significant market barriers to entry blocking the competitiveness of American companies.

For instance, currently, if a product can even be imported into the country, the Chinese control every aspect of movement, right down to who can handle and repair an item. Those requirements will be eliminated as will the state-controlled trading companies. Quotas and tariffs must be published.

These are major steps in the direction of a market-based economy. The elimination of these wide-spread and draconian barriers will give American entrepreneurs and small businesses that want to take on the Chinese market a real chance to penetrate and compete. For the first time, American businesses, large and small, will have the chance to compete on a level playing field.

It is also worth nothing, that without the benefit of the WTO, to ensure adherence to our trade agreements, we must rely on our federal agencies to oversee and enforce agreements. Frustration with the Chinese regarding their respect for and adherence to past agreements has been expressed. We will receive the benefit of a rules-based trading regime and the weight of enforcement on a multi-lateral basis once China is a member of the body.

Some of the opponents argue that this measure is a "blank check" for China and that it "rewards" China despite the past abuses of its people. The complaints of the human rights activists against China are legitimate. The abuses and repression of religion are deplorable and their gestures toward a free Taiwan are totally unacceptable.

The arguments that we are giving them a pass despite these abuses misses the point and the argument that profits are taking precedence over American values is wrong. This vote is of significant importance in promoting free enterprise in China and creating a increasingly prosperous and reform-minded middle class.

For all the backwardness of China on the issue of religious freedom and human rights, positive changes are underway on the economic front -- we should recognize that the changes are a direct threat to the communist establishment in China. As the Chinese people become more aware of the opportunities that exist for improving one's life that are inherent in a free society, they will demand more rights from their government and will demand that the government become more responsive to the will of the people.

Senators have come to the floor this week to tell troubling stories about life in China and made arguments as to why it would be a mistake at this time to grant China PNTR. By not supporting their amendments, they have argued, we are betraying our values as a people and we are abandoning support for the principles that make ours a great country.

For all their good arguments, passing PNTR and enhancing our economic engagement with China is a concrete opportunity to promote change in many of the areas raised. It is important to discuss these issues and reiterate time and again in the strongest possible terms that we condemn the practices of the Chinese. However, it does not follow that defeating PNTR is the way to force the Chinese to change their behavior. The exact opposite is true. Exposing China to more freedom and opportunities is the way to bring about change.

One of the early amendments was in the area of the environment. The argument has been made that we cannot grant the Chinese PNTR because they have been poor stewards of their environment.
