Comrade Tom Barrett

For Immediate ReleaseNovember 10, 2005MAYOR ASKS PRESIDENT BUSH TO SUPPORT HARLEY-DAVIDSON’S CHINA STRATEGY Mayor Tom Barrett today asked President George W. Bush to help address the current trade imbalance between the U.S. and China by promoting Harley-Davidson Motor Company’s efforts to enter the Chinese market. President Bush plans to meet with Chinese President Hu Jintao during an upcoming trip to Asia next week. In a letter to the President, Mayor Barrett urged him to advance the cause of Harley-Davidson, by supporting the purchase of Harley-Davidson motorcycles by Chinese police forces. Barrett noted that China has a de facto trade barrier against Harley-Davidson, as numerous motorcycle restrictions are in place throughout the country. During his recent business mission to China, Barrett discussed the situation with several local Chinese officials and noted that law enforcement agencies in 45 nations use Harley-Davidson motorcycles. “It was clear from my conversations that the Harley-Davidson brand is well known and well regarded in China,” Mayor Barrett wrote. “I believe a strategy involving the introduction of Harley-Davidson motorcycles as vehicles for Chinese municipal police forces would be an effective first step in loosening China’s restrictions on this product. The use of motorcycles by law enforcement will provide assurances to the Chinese that Harley-Davidson products meet required emissions, noise and safety standards, and provide an excellent vehicle choice for both basic transportation and leisure touring.” Barrett asked his fellow mayors in Kansas City and York, Pennsylvania to join him in his request of President Bush to protect the jobs of workers at the Harley-Davidson plants in their cities.
