HR 1107

Sponsored by Young Kim (R)

PRC Is Not a Developing Country Act

Would have required the State Department to push international groups to stop treating China as a developing country.

Tradeoff

Would have pushed to deny China developing-country perks, such as special trade treatment at the World Trade Organization (WTO). The President could waive the requirement if it served the national interest.
