Outsourcing of American Jobs

Created by D.P. on May 05, 2016

The United States has no laws against the outsourcing of labor. In fact, the only legislation that scratches the surface of the outsourcing of American technology and jobs is a small statute that declares outsourced labor is still subject to U.S. regulation and oversight. Measures must be taken to protect American jobs and to shield U.S. corporations from the temptations and incentives of moving labor to other countries. Please join me in my efforts to attempt to create legislation that either entices or forces companies to bring back jobs created by American companies. Legislation I am proposing would state that if that if American companies wish to sell to United States citizens then they must produce at least a certain percentage (65-85%) of their parts in the United States.
