"The House version of
China PNTR represents a carefully crafted compromise... We urge you to
bring this issue before the Senate when Members return in June."
---Letter to the Senate from 96 of the nation's leading agricultural
and farm organizations. "We urge you to exercise bipartisan leadership in bringing H.R. 4444 to a vote as a priority during the month of June... We also urge that every effort be made to deter the introduction and adoption of any amendments." ---Letter to Senators Lott and Daschle from 17 leading American CEOs. "We therefore urge you... [to] pass H.R. 4444, without further amendment, before the July 4 Senate recess." ---Letter to the Senate from Frederick Smith of Federal Express, Roger Ackerman of Corning, former USTR Carla Hills, and Robert Kapp, the leaders of the U.S.-China Business Council. "We urge the Senate to take up floor consideration as soon as possible... In the end, we urge the Senate to pass legislation without amendments that would necessitate a House-Senate conference--and another round of votes." ---Letter to Senator Lott from the U.S. High-Technology Coalition on China. |
THE TIME FOR ENGAGEMENT IS NOW. | |
