                         U.S. STEEL CHINA WEEK

  (Mr. MILLER of Ohio asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. MILLER of Ohio. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to highlight something 
President Biden and I agree on for once: U.S. Steel must remain an 
American company.
  Steel is the backbone of our economy and is crucial to America's 
national and economic security. American bridges, railways, highways, 
and buildings are all built with, you guessed it, steel.
  U.S. Steel is American steel at its core, and it was once the largest 
steel producer in the world, a symbol of our global competitiveness.
  United States Steel should be owned by Americans. United States Steel 
should provide jobs to American workers. United States Steel should be 
here to forge America forward.
  Now, Mr. Speaker, I want to be clear. This is not about being anti-
Japan or any other nation for that matter. Instead, this is about being 
pro-America and protecting our economic future and our national 
security.
  A strong steel industry means a strong middle class with good-paying 
jobs that support American families. We shouldn't sell out our workers 
or our future to foreign corporations.
