SA 1411. Mr. HATCH proposed an amendment to the bill H.R. 1314, to
amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide for a right to an
administrative appeal relating to adverse determinations of tax-exempt
status of certain organizations; as follows:
In lieu of the text proposed to be stricken, insert the
following:
(11) Foreign currency manipulation.--The principal
negotiating objective of the United States with respect to
unfair currency practices is to seek to establish
accountability through enforceable rules, transparency,
reporting, monitoring, cooperative mechanisms, or other means
to address exchange rate manipulation involving protracted
large scale intervention in one direction in the exchange
markets and a persistently undervalued foreign exchange rate
to gain an unfair competitive advantage in trade over other
parties to a trade agreement, consistent with existing
obligations of the United States as a member of the
International Monetary Fund and the World Trade Organization.
