This resolution expresses the sense that China seeks to dominate technology-related sectors through unfair trade practices as outlined in the Made in China 2025 plan (a broad set of industrial plans aiming to boost competitiveness in global manufacturing). The resolution also expresses that U.S. businesses, research institutions, and federal entities involved in research and design are targets for such disruption, and should prepare themselves for growing unfair Chinese trade practices and continued theft of intellectual property.
