I think this bill is a good thing because it helps to address the serious issue of labor abuses by the CCP. It's heartbreaking to think about the workers who are suffering under these conditions, and I believe that this bill is a step in the right direction to combatting these abuses. It's important for us to stand up for human rights and ensure that workers are treated fairly and ethically. But I wonder, who really benefits from this bill? Who is going to see the most impact from these changes?

I don't think this bill is a good idea. It's gonna mess with my business and I don't like that. They should focus on other stuff instead of this.
