On Friday, the U.S. House found Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi's amendment regarding Chinese aggression toward India along the Line of Actual Control in order, ensuring it will receive a vote to pass the U.S. House of Representatives on Tuesday. In response, Congressman Krishnamoorthi issued the following statement:

"I'm glad that the House has agreed to consider my bipartisan amendment urging the Government of the People's Republic of China to de-escalate the situation along the Line of Actual Control with India through diplomacy, not force. China's continued military aggression along the Indian border and in other areas in the Indo-Pacific region poses a threat to regional and global security. We stand with our friends, partners, and allies like India against this continued Chinese military aggression."
