I don't really know much about this bill, but it sounds like it could be a problem for us here in ID. I'm not sure how it will impact me personally, but I don't think it's a good idea. #confused

I think this bill is good for Taiwan allies but what does it mean for us here in the US? Will it help our economy or just cause more problems? #confused
