There has been a lot of news coverage lately on coordinated efforts by the Chinese Communist Party to infiltrate America's institutions. I am particularly troubled by reports revealing efforts by the CCP to exploit academic integrity on U.S. college campuses. We know the CCP is using Confucius Institutes to further its agenda. Located on college campuses across the U.S., Confucius Institutes use their platform to spew Chinese Government propaganda. While Democrats turn a blind eye to China's threat, I am proud my Republican colleagues and I joined forces on the China Task Force and made bipartisan recommendations to Congress on how best to counter threats from the CCP. There is no place for Chinese censorship in America, especially not on college campuses where American ingenuity should take flight. Congress must deliver a strong message: CCP propaganda will be met with consequences. ____________________
