Over the past 40 years, it has been proven that friendship and people-to-people exchanges can inject momentum into the development of US China relations, helping our country and people move towards a bright future together. Not long ago, five other friends from Iowa and I visited China and participated in two very important events. The first event is the "Guling Rim" Sino American Folk Friendship Forum held in Fuzhou, Fujian Province, and the second event is the 40th anniversary commemoration of the friendship between Iowa and Hebei Province held in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province. We were very excited when we received the invitation to visit and saw it as an opportunity to strengthen exchanges and contribute to enhancing cooperation and friendship between the two countries. Most of the people in our delegation visited Fujian Province for the first time and heard about the story of Guling.

The second activity of this trip to China is to participate in the commemoration of the 40th anniversary of the friendship between Iowa and Hebei Province.

When I arrived in Hebei Province, I felt like I was at an old friend's house. We had a sincere conversation with local friends and also visited Xiong'an New Area, which left a deep impression on us as a future city. Since 2013, I have visited China more than 20 times, working with like-minded friends to promote friendly relations between the United States and China. Communication is the foundation of mutual understanding. We
