Michael McCaul, the top Republican on the House foreign relations committee, commended the Biden administration for its assistance. And Senators John Cornyn, a Republican who co-heads the India Caucus, and Rob Portman joined Mark Warner, a Democrat who co-chairs the India Caucus, to urge the Biden administration to do more for India. The silence of the rest of the Republicans, especially former president Donald Trump, is notable. The Biden administration has attributed its assistance to India to this gesture. That same WTO proposal struck a chord, however, with the Democrats.
