Maintaining America’s Global Competitive Edge, With Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA)

China engages in egregious “innovation mercantilism,” including
massive tech subsidies and forced tech transfer, all designed to
have China replace America as the global tech leader. It’s time
for America to rise to the challenge by developing its own plan
to maintain competitive advantage in advanced and emerging
technology industries that are critical to U.S. economic and
national security. Rob and Jackie discuss all of this—along with
what an Energy and Commerce agenda might look like next
Congress--with Representative Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA),
Ranking Member on E&C’s Consumer Protection and Commerce
Subcommittee.
