SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: This is the second public hearing the Commission will
hold during its 2024 reporting cycle. The hearing will initially
address the safety and quality of consumer products imported from China
and the extent to which U.S. consumers, firms, and regulators are able
to detect and respond to risks presented by unsafe and poor-quality
imports. Next, the hearing will examine how shifts in global trade
patterns affect U.S. supply chain resiliency, focusing on Chinese firms
moving manufacturing abroad as well as attempts by Chinese firms to
circumvent U.S. tariffs via transshipment through intermediary
countries. Finally, the hearing will assess the Chinese government's
economic and policy support for its domestic manufacturing sector and
consider the potential impact of these policies on China and the United
States.
The hearing will be co-chaired by Commissioner Robin Cleveland and
Commissioner Kimberly T. Glas. Any interested party may file a written
statement by March 1, 2024 by transmitting it to the contact above. A
portion of the hearing will include a question and answer period
between the Commissioners and the witnesses.
