House lawmakers are preparing to meet this week with Apple CEO Tim Cook and Disney CEO Robert Iger in a series of meetings with Silicon Valley and Hollywood power brokers about countering China’s threat to America.
The lawmakers will meet Mr. Iger in Hollywood and plan to huddle privately with producers, screenwriters and studio executives to discuss concerns about censorship and other issues involving requirements for access to screen films and shows in China’s market. Proposed restrictions on TikTok are expected to be discussed in the committee members’ meetings with the Big Tech leaders, though lawmakers have a broader range of issues to raise, according to a source close to the committee.
The lawmakers are also set to meet with experts based at Stanford University, including former Defense Secretary James Mattis and political scientist Oriana Skylar Mastro.
