A dozen top Senate Democrats issued a scathing joint statement July 30, warning that President Donald Trump is endangering US national security and technological superiority by pausing export controls on sensitive technologies to China in a bid to secure a trade deal and a potential visit to Beijing.
Led by Senate Armed Services Ranking Member Jack Reed (D-R.I.) and Ranking Senate Defense Appropriator Chris Coons (D-Del.), the statement was also signed by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), Senate Appropriations Vice Chair Patty Murray (D-Wash.), Senate Intelligence Committee Vice Chair Mark Warner (D-Va.), and seven other influential lawmakers from defense, foreign relations, and intelligence committees.
