From COVID-19 to security in the Indo-Pacific, from human rights violations to cyber issues, from trade tensions to climate change, our daily headlines cover a growing number of friction points in the U.S.-China relationship. These critical issues are causing voices in the Administration, Congress, and those vying for office – from both sides of the aisle – to speak out about China. As the November election approaches, it is critical for thought leaders to understand the nuances of these views, find areas of consensus, and to understand differences in Republican and Democratic approaches to these complex issues.
On July 28, 2020, the National Committee held a virtual, off-the-record program with two veteran Washington political insiders, Republican strategist Bryan Lanza and Democratic strategist Adam Bramwell, both of Mercury Public Affairs, to discuss the U.S.-China relationship and the partisan views that are taking shape during the election season.
