CEI Opposes Waters Ex-Im Bank Reauthorization Bill

The Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI) opposes a bill authored by Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) that would reauthorize Export-Import Bank (Ex-Im Bank) operations. The bill is different from a Senate bill introduced by Sens. Kevin Cramer (R-ND) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) that was the subject of a CEI study, entitled “How the Ex-Im Bank Enables Cronyism and Wastes Taxpayer Money.” That study stated CEI’s opposition to Ex-Im Bank reauthorization, but also proposed several key reforms to the Cramer-Sinema bill.
