  "summary": "More than two dozen Democratic lawmakers have urged President Donald Trump to maintain a ban on Chinese automakers from the US market. The lawmakers, led by Representative Debbie Dingell, expressed their concerns ahead of Trump's meeting with China's President Xi Jinping.\n\nIn a letter, the 27 lawmakers asked Trump to keep strong protections against Chinese automobiles and connected vehicle technologies. They wanted to ensure that China does not gain access to the US market through direct imports, local production, or other means.\n\nEarlier this month, Trump told Fox News that he would accept Chinese car companies building cars in the United States.",
