Ryan Schmelz: 众议院正在寻求两党合作以对抗中国在美国的影响力。共和党人需要团结一致通过法案，而本·克莱恩众议员正专注于一个获得两党支持的问题：打击中国在美国的影响力。 Ben Cline: 我认为中国是一个两党问题，我们需要对抗中国的侵略。目前的法律存在漏洞，使得外国势力可以规避透明度并暗中影响美国政策。如果曾经代表外国势力行事，即使已经退出，也必须注册。我们都希望降低处方药的价格，总统正在采取行政行动，我们也一直在推动立法，通过鼓励更多仿制药和竞争来降低价格。总统关注着美国人民的担忧，包括通货膨胀和高物价，并愿意代表美国人民解决问题。解决药品价格问题可以采取两党合作的方式，需要搁置党派分歧，坐下来共同努力。我们理解各地的共和党人有不同的担忧，并希望确保每个人都觉得这项法案能够为他们的选民解决问题。我们尊重这些担忧，并希望与同事合作解决这个问题，但我们不会为了满足一个特定问题而破坏整个法案。我们希望确保工薪阶层不会缴纳过高的税款，并改善经济和就业。将制造业和企业带回美国将有助于创造就业、产生财富和降低税负。我不同意提高税收的观点，美国人民已经投票反对了民主党提高税收的政策。我们竞选时承诺降低美国人民的税收，应该努力保持低税收，这会刺激经济增长，使所有美国人都受益。

Virginia Congressman Ben Cline (R-VA), member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, has introduced legislation that would close a loophole in the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) which would ensure that individuals who were once acting as a foreign agent will be required to register for their foreign lobbying work. The bill is getting solid bipartisan support, along with support of President Trump's announcement the United States and China have agreed to lower most tariffs for 90 days saying the deal will cut tariffs on most Chinese products from 145 to 30 percent.

FOX’s Ryan Schmelz speaks with Congressman Ben Cline (R-VA), member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and House Committee on Appropriations, who says he hopes to get Democrats onboard to combat threats from China, lowering prescription drug prices and ways to save Medicaid.
