New Bill Bars China From US Emergency Oil Stockpile

A new bill aims to get communist China’s hands off American emergency oil. That’s as the U.S. reserve stockpile hits a 40-year low.

Meanwhile, explosive growth of cross-border e-commerce has caught the attention of U.S. lawmakers, shining a spotlight on a tax rule that critics say has allowed packages from China to enter the U.S. duty-free. We hear more from a U.S. Border Security officer.

A lone Philippine supply boat was recently pursued by a Chinese vessel in the South China Sea. More on the chase at sea, and a pledge from the Philippines’ president.
