China lobby in the United States

In American politics, the China lobby (Chinese: 中國遊說團; pinyin: Zhōngguó yóushuì tuán; Wade–Giles: Chung1-kuo2 yu2-shui4 t'uan2) consisted of an informal network of advocacy groups, politicians, journalists, Protestant missions in China, Chinese diplomats, and Chinese Americans calling for the United States to support the Republic of China and the Kuomintang during World War II and later the Chinese Civil War along with the broader Cold War. The China lobby emerged in the Second Sino-Japanese War advocating for the United States to intervene against Japanese aggression in China.
