CORROBORATED
Multiple sources confirm that the Congressional-Executive Commission on China (CECC) has sent letters to the US President (both Biden and Trump in different contexts) regarding the release of Americans detained in China. While the specific phrase 'bargaining chips' is a common theme in these reports, the general action of the commission urging the president via letter to prevent China from using detainees as leverage is supported by multiple reports from the CECC and news outlets.
