Club for Growth President Chris Chocola: “Senator Mike Lee and Congressman Justin Amash are true champions of economic freedom, so it’s no surprise that they would go to bat for the taxpayers and seek to end the Export-Import Bank.”

Washington, DC – The Club for Growth issued the following statement on a bill authored by Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) and Congressman Justin Amash (R-MI) to repeal the Export-Import Bank:

“Senator Mike Lee and Congressman Justin Amash are true champions of economic freedom, so it’s no surprise that they would go to bat for the taxpayers and seek an end to the Export-Import Bank,” said Club for Growth President Chris Chocola. “Even President Obama has called the bank nothing more than a slush fund for corporate welfare. The Club for Growth strongly supports the efforts of Senator Lee and Congressman Amash to end these taxpayer-backed subsidies once and for all.”
