ST. LOUIS, MO -- On WEDNESDAY, January 20, 2010 at 9:30 AM CST, following an address to members of the Midwest-China Hub Commission, United States Senator Kit Bond will hold a media availability on his recent trip to China and detail progress regarding the China Hub project. Specifically, Bond will highlight details from his meetings with Chinese ministry-level officials, legislators and representatives.
Last year, U.S. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) chose Bond to serve as the Vice-Chairman of the U.S.-China Inter-Parliamentary Group, which is the Senate's highest level delegation to China. This past week, Bond co-led a trip to China with the delegation's chair, Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) and held meetings with top-ranking legislative officials in Beijing and Shanghai on how to improve trade between the U.S. and China.
