"The G20 are meeting in a couple of months. It's clear to me the (Obama) administration is endeavoring to try to bring about a change" in China's currency, Ways and Means Committee Chairman Sander Levin said at the National Press Club.

"They're going to try to use a multilateral process to help bring that about. If it doesn't work, the U.S. will act. I have no doubt about it. I think the administration will act and I think the Congress will act," the Michigan Democrat said.
