            DEFEND AMERICAN WORKERS AND STEEL MANUFACTURERS

  (Mr. MRVAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. MRVAN. Madam Speaker, I rise today as vice chairman of the 
Congressional Steel Caucus to highlight a recent letter I wrote with 
Chairman Crawford to the administration.
  Specifically, we requested that the Department of Commerce and the 
Office of the U.S. Trade Representatives take action to address a 
recent surge of steel imports from Mexico.
  The letter highlights how recent reports reveal significant volumes 
of steel that were melted and poured in countries such as Brazil, South 
Korea, and Russia have entered our market through Mexico.
  This development is very concerning to us, as it is occurring when 
the American steel industry is making significant investments in new 
state-of-the-art, low-emission steel facilities.
  Madam Speaker, I look forward to continuing to work with the Steel 
Caucus and the administration to address this matter and defend 
American workers and steel manufacturers.
