House Democrats urge Trump to block Chinese car sales

More than 70 House Democrats, led by Representatives Debbie Dingell and Ro Khanna, urged President Trump to uphold a ban on Chinese automakers selling cars in the U.S.
The push comes ahead of Trump's summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping and follows similar calls from three Democratic senators.
The Biden administration has already implemented regulations preventing Chinese automakers from entering the U.S. market due to national security risks.
Despite high tariffs, interest in Chinese-made cars is rising among U.S. consumers, prompting concerns from American auto groups.
