What They're Saying
U.S. Senators Rob Portman (R-OH) and Sherrod Brown (D-OH)
"Further postponement of the Section 232 investigation will invite a growing deluge of steel imports into the U.S. and cause even greater damage to the U.S. steel sector.”
U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer
"The sheer scale of [China’s] coordinated efforts to develop their economy…and to distort markets in China and throughout the word is a threat to the world trading system that is unprecedented.”
Dr. James Mulvenon, General Manager, Special Programs Division, SOS International
"...the number of examples where China has successfully avoided U.S. regulatory regimes to prevent technology transfer harmful U.S. national security are increasing. The Chinese are learning our system, identifying its gaps and weaknesses, and finding new ways to exploit American technology to their advantage."
U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX)
"By exploiting gaps in the existing CFIUS review process, potential adversaries, such as China, have been effectively degrading our country’s military technological edge by acquiring, and otherwise investing in, U.S. companies."
James Lewis, Senior Vice President, Center for Strategic and International Studies
“China’s goal is to end its dependence on foreign technology and overtake the U.S., as it has overtaken other nations.”

TAKE ACTION: It's time to close the loophole that allows Chinese state-owned & supported companies to bid on taxpayer-funded contracts for transit at U.S. airports!
It's been a long time coming. 👏👏
. @CRRC_global's trade practices hurt domestic passenger rail manufacturers/suppliers, which is why groups representing thousands of U.S. trade workers commented to support a @USDOTFRA proposed rule that guards our freight rail sector from Chinese SOEs. https://railsecurity.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/SAFE-TRAINS-Press-Release.020624.final_.pdf
If CRRC is awarded the contract to build Lisbon's 24 new passenger railcars, then Europe's domestic markets face a real and growing threat. Now's the time for the @EU_Commission to use its foreign subsidies regulation to investigate CRRC.
CRRC once again offered the lowest bid for manufacturing railcars . . . but now it's in Portugal. CRRC's ties to the Chinese Communist Party, which includes anticompetitive subsidies, are a threat to any other market railcar manufacturer. @EU_Commission
