UAW urges Congress to keep House China select committee in place
WASHINGTON, Nov 11 (Reuters) - The United Auto Workers union urged top US lawmakers to keep the House China Select Committee in place when Democrats take over, citing concerns about Chinese automakers, according to a letter seen by Reuters Wednesday.
"From global overcapacity in electric vehicles, Chinese ownership of Western automakers, and continued offshoring to China, we urgently need Congress’s focused attention on these issues and their rapidly emerging downstream effects," the UAW wrote House Speaker Mike Johnson and Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries.
