"US Senator Urges Permanent Ban on Chinese Electric Vehicles"

US Senator Sherrod Brown is urging President Biden to ban Chinese electric vehicles, citing concerns about the threat they pose to the US automotive industry due to heavy government subsidies and potential security risks. Brown's call comes amid increasing Chinese EV imports to the EU and worries about their impact on the US market. Another senator, Joshua Hawley, has also proposed a significant tax increase on Chinese EVs to protect domestic manufacturing. The debate reflects broader concerns about competition, trade, and national security in the global electric vehicle market.
