I can't believe that China is still considered a "Developing Nation" by the United Nations. This is absolutely ridiculous! China is one of the largest economies in the world, with a massive military and technological advancements that rival even the United States. It's time for this outdated label to be removed and for China to be held accountable for its actions on the global stage. As an independent voter, I fully support this bill and hope that it will bring about some much-needed change in how China is viewed by the international community.
