WASHINGTON, April 28 (Reuters) – More than 70 Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives on Tuesday urged President Donald Trump not to permit Chinese automakers to build or sell cars in the United States.
The lawmakers, led by Representative Debbie Dingell and Ro Khanna, urged Trump to keep a ban in place has the strong backing of U.S. and foreign carmakers and other auto groups. Earlier this month, three Democratic senators made a similar push ahead of Trump’s planned summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping next month.
