Mr. President, this motion to instruct conferees for the Defense authorization bill is related to our reforms of the operation of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States. It is no secret that China is weaponizing its investments in the United States to exploit national security vulnerabilities, including backdoor transfers of dual-use U.S. technology and related know-how. I am delighted to be working with Mrs. Feinstein, the Senator from California, on this issue. I thank our friend Senator Inhofe, who has taken a leadership role on the Armed Services Committee, and Senator Crapo for the unanimous vote on the Banking Committee. I yield to Senator Inhofe.
