This updated list of Chinese military companies is a warning to American businesses, all levels of government, and the American people. These Chinese companies are working with the Chinese military against our national interests. Any of them that are publicly traded on U.S. exchanges should be immediately delisted and their products should be removed from supply chains our country depends on. American companies must stop doing business with these threats to our national security, otherwise they are enabling China’s military ascendance. https://t.co/j1nQ2sJuEV
CRRC's inclusion on the Department of Defense entity list of Chinese military companies again underscores the threat that CRRC has on our economic and national security. https://t.co/l9oRlK1ofu
According to Oxford Economics, the U.S. railcar industry generated an annual economic footprint of $36B in output, $14.9B in GDP contribution, and 112,200 jobs across the country. USMCA only strengthens this vital industry. https://t.co/q4UZFVzMbP
USMCA is critical to the interconnected North American rail system. In advance of the Joint Review, RSA recommends four areas of focus. https://t.co/rmuE9S7mxg

A new OECD report finds global industrial subsidies are at their highest level since 2008, driven largely by China. For freight rail, this isn't abstract. It's the story behind every CRRC underbid on railcar contracts. https://t.co/U0V59JFi0X
The Freight RAILCAR Act of 2025 is the bipartisan solution to lower freight volumes: a 10% tax credit to replace outdated railcars, boost efficiency, and revive manufacturing. Congress, let’s get this done. https://t.co/mNQdJHWFzY
When RSA was founded 10 years ago, there was little talk about the threat of Chinese SOEs, and nobody was talking about the concrete threat that China’s CRRC posed to America’s freight railcar manufacturers and suppliers. We saw the writing on the wall. https://t.co/h3evKA27MW
FreightWaves reports: Freight on American railroads is down, putting our economic and national security at risk. Now's the time for the Freight RAILCAR Act of 2025. https://t.co/XF1wcJ5nnA
