China Subsidy Response and Export Competitiveness Act of 2026

The China Subsidy Response and Export Competitiveness Act of 2026 amends the Export-Import Bank Act to modify how the federal government supports American exporters. The bill updates the bank's mission statement to focus on neutralizing foreign subsidies rather than only countering direct export subsidies and expands the list of priority export sectors to include semiconductor machinery and medical manufacturing. These changes directly affect the Export-Import Bank, which will use these adjustments to guide its guarantee coverage and lending programs for U.S. businesses.
