US House panel voices support for legislation restricting business with Chinese biotech firms

A U.S. House committee on Wednesday voiced support for legislation that would restrict business with China's BGI, WuXi AppTec and certain other biotech companies on national security grounds.

A member of the committee called for a recorded vote on the measure which will be needed to officially advance the legislation and will come later in the day.
