Congresswoman McCollum Votes Protect American Jobs
Congresswoman McCollum and Democrats were joined by 99 Republicans in passing the Currency Reform for Fair Trade Act (H.R. 2378), which helps prevent unfair trade practices that hurt U.S. exports and push American jobs overseas.

This currency manipulation makes U.S. exports less competitive, hurts U.S. manufacturers, and slows the economic recovery.
