May 11 (Reuters) – Two members of the U.S. House of Representatives on Monday will introduce legislation to toughen a U.S. government ban on Chinese automakers from entering the American market just before President Donald Trump heads to China for talks.
The legislation would codify a regulation imposed by the Biden administration that effectively bans all Chinese automakers from selling passenger vehicles in the U.S. and take other steps to prevent China from entering the U.S. light-duty market.
Representatives John Moolenaar, a Republican, and Debbie Dingell, a Democrat, are introducing the legislation after a version was introduced in the Senate last month by Republican Bernie Moreno and Democrat Elissa Slotkin.
