ICYMI: Sullivan Chairs Hearing on Chinese Threats to American Economic Competitiveness
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Continuing his leadership efforts to address the non-reciprocal economic relationship between the United States and China, U.S. Senator Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska) yesterday chaired a hearing of the Senate Commerce Subcommittee on Security entitled “The China Challenge: Realignment of U.S. Economic Policies to Build Resiliency and Competitiveness.” The hearing examined topics related to the Chinese Communist Party’s unfair trade practices, intellectual property theft, and market manipulation and their harmful impact on U.S. global economic competitiveness.

Since arriving to the Senate, Senator Sullivan has observed an emerging “Cold War” between the United States and China across a number of sectors. In a speech before the Heritage Foundation in September of 2019, Sullivan charted a strategy for how the U.S. can establish reciprocity in the bilateral relationship and how the U.S. can strengthen its economy and military to meet the rising threat from China. Sullivan echoed these themes and solutions in the hearing today.
