Trade

Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution states that Congress shall have the power "To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations."

Congress may not abdicate or transfer to others these Constitutional powers. I oppose the unconstitutional transfer of authority over U.S. trade policy from Congress to agencies, domestic or foreign, which improperly exercise policy-setting functions with respect to U.S. trade policy.

In the area of national security, foreign interests have been abetted in gaining access to America's high-tech secrets under the guise of commercial enterprise. I propose that technology transfers which compromise national security be made illegal, and urge that all violators be prosecuted.
