Strengthening Exports Against China Act

# Strengthening Exports Against China Act Summary **What the Bill Does:** This bill aims to help American businesses compete better against Chinese companies by improving U.S. export support. The legislation would enhance government lending and financing programs that help American companies sell products overseas, particularly in competition with China. It focuses on making these export financing tools more accessible and competitive, allowing U.S.

businesses to offer better terms to international buyers. **Who It Affects:** The bill primarily impacts American exporters and manufacturers looking to sell goods internationally, as well as the government agencies that manage export financing programs (like the Export-Import Bank).

It was sponsored by Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nevada). The bill has not yet advanced to a floor vote or been passed into law.
