While I would support similar legislation IRL, as tack said, this simply does not reflect the in-game circumstances of a severely weakened China. I would also add that this Congress passed a resolution last year condemning China for its human rights abuses and its placement on the UN Human Rights Council.

With respect to the sponsor, I'm motioning to table this resolution.

A 48-hour period is declared on the motion to table. Two-thirds of voting senators (excluding abstentions) are needed to table.

Senators, please vote Aye, Nay, or Abstain.

Not a member anymore, but, once again, I authored (well, really borrowed) a resolution condemning China for its human rights violations. My resolution went a step further and also condemned the UN for appointing China to the HRC.

But I think with regard to currency manipulation, we need some clarification from the GM or Secretary of State as to whether that is happening. Based on talks with the Secretary of State, my understanding is that we are trying to use religious tolerance as a bargaining chip.

And now that I think of it, passing that resolution may very well have cost us that bargaining chip. But the UN deserves a fair share of the blame for appointing them in the first place and further compromising their own credibility.

2. Upon passage, The Republic of Atlasia will officially condemn China's "salami-slicing" practices in Asia.

Can someone explain to me how these practices work?

I think in light of the previous discussion, the second paragraphed on currency manipulation should be broaden to incorporate more general acts of trade practices.

Definitely would recommend amending the resolution to define this, because when I read "salami-slicing", I think of Peebs.
