(Reuters) -A group of Senate Democrats led by Chuck Schumer on Wednesday urged President Donald Trump not to lift national security restrictions on China in pursuit of a trade deal.
“America’s export controls, investment safeguards, and our longstanding security partnerships must not be on the negotiating table,” the senators wrote, also calling on Trump not to limits efforts by the Treasury Department’s Outbound Investment Security Program, which aims to ensure U.S. firms do not contribute to the development of sensitive technologies in countries like China.
