    U.S. TRADE POLICY SEES NO CHANGE, AMERICAN JOBS STILL THREATENED
  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute, and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, everybody was cheering because the Trade 
Representative finally stood up to those Chinese dictators. Not for 
long. At this moment they are negotiating a $8 billion energy deal with 
China. Beam me up. John Wayne is rolling over in his grave.
  When will we learn, Congress, that from Nixon to Clinton this policy 
of engagement is nothing more than a policy of surrender that is 
killing the American workers. I say enough is enough. No more wimp-
outs, no more deals, no more promises. Congress should strip China of 
its most-favored-nation trade status or Congress has no anatomy at all.
  Mr. Speaker, the last I heard, it was still Uncle Sam. Let us not 
treat him like Uncle Sucker anymore.
