IPC Statement on U.S.-China Trade Deal
January 15, 2020 | Chris Mitchell, IPC VP, Global Government RelationsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Chris Mitchell, IPC's VP of global government affairs, released this statement regarding today’s trade deal:
"The electronics manufacturing industry welcomes the U.S.-China 'phase one' trade deal being signed today in Washington, and the pathway it offers to the resolution of broader issues. The deal leaves many issues unaddressed, including cyber and structural economic reforms, and a broad range of increased tariffs that are still in place. As documented in a recent IPC study [1], many IPC members are feeling the pain of higher costs, supply chain disruptions, administrative hassles, and reduced access to the Chinese market as a result of the U.S.-China trade conflict."

The Government Circuit: News on Defense Electronics, Europe, and Sustainability
09/17/2024 | Chris Mitchell -- Column: The Government CircuitSeptember in the United States is the season for back-to-school and football. In the arena of government policy advocacy, it’s the season for election campaigning and wrapping up the work of the current session of Congress. This month, there will be a flurry of efforts in Congress by legislators to complete action on “must-do” legislation, especially spending plans for FY25, which begins Oct. 1. In October, there will be a recess for the home stretch of the campaign; in November and December, there will be one more round of policy action by the “lame duck” office holders before the new U.S. government takes office in January. Now is the time for us to try and get those ducks in a row.
