House Democrats have urged the Trump administration to ensure its trade talks with China address Beijing’s industrial overcapacity. They warned that unchecked production in sectors like steel and solar panels fuels export dumping, threatens US jobs, and destabilizes global markets.
The lawmakers called for stronger enforcement in any deal and closer cooperation with allies to counter China’s practices. Their appeal comes as US and Chinese officials hold talks in Madrid, highlighting bipartisan concern in Washington over Beijing’s export-driven strategy, Reuters reported.
