Advocacy

The US-China Business Council (USCBC) supports a strong, mutually beneficial commercial relationship with China. The relationship has made many positive strides over the past three decades, thanks to the collaborative work of the governments, business communities, and other stakeholders in both countries.

USCBC's board of directors first issued a priorities statement in February 2012. Progress has been made on a number of the statement's recommendations. More work needs to be done on several other issues highlighted in that statement, and new issues have arisen that require the attention of both governments in order to fully develop commercial ties, tackle unresolved issues, and bring greater benefit to each country's economy, companies, employees, farmers, and consumers.

Industry Priorities for US-China Commercial Relations

 

The beginning of a new administration is an opportunity to re-evaluate strategic priorities for the US-China commercial relationship. At this inflection point, the US-China Business Council (USCBC) is pleased to put forward a set of commercial priorities with respect to China for the administration to consider.

To implement an effective China strategy, it will be critical for the administration to take an all-of-government approach, coordinating and sharing information both between executive agencies and with Congress. Robust industry input will be vital to crafting comprehensive, balanced policies that do not have inadvertent consequences. USCBC’s board and members would be pleased to serve as a resource.
