US Senators Plan China Trip to Discuss Micron and Meet with Xi

A bipartisan group of US senators, led by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Senator Mike Crapo, plans to visit China next week and hopes to meet with President Xi Jinping. The senators will discuss a range of issues, including Micron Technology Inc.'s ability to do business in China amid an ongoing cybersecurity probe. The trip follows recent visits by high-level US officials to China as both countries seek to improve relations. The senators also plan to raise concerns about human rights, fentanyl, and the investment climate for US companies. The US is hoping to arrange a meeting between President Joe Biden and President Xi at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in November.
