Gallagher and Krishnamoorthi Release Joint Statement on Amb. Emanuel's Tokyo Speech, Press Release, The Select Committee on the CCP, The U.S. House, Mar 29, 2023.
Reps. Mike Gallagher (R-WI) and Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL), Chairman and Ranking Member of the Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, today released the following joint statement in support of U.S. Ambassador to Japan, Rahm Emauel's speech at the University of Tokyo, outlining the Chinese Communist Party's economic coercion and the need for the free world to push back again the CCP's malign influence.
"We welcome Ambassador Emanuel’s efforts to strengthen America’s alliances to combat the Chinese Communist Party’s coercive economic practices. The CCP has a long history of using economic coercion against other countries to get its way. The Ambassador’s effort will not only shine a light on these practices, but show a better way forward for building economic cooperation and collective resilience with our like-minded partners and allies. We look forward to working on a bipartisan basis in our Select Committee to expose these efforts by the CCP while supporting our friends and allies in need.”
