On Monday, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) announced that he had selected a group of Republican lawmakers to serve on the new House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party.
According to the Washington Examiner, House Republicans previously established a task force to investigate issues like intellectual property theft and national security threats to the U.S. and its allies as part of their efforts to combat threats from China.
The newly formed panel is set to be chaired by Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI), who recently went on FOX News to discuss the importance of the select committee.
With strong bipartisan support, the House passed a resolution creating the panel by a 365-65 vote earlier this month.
According to the resolution, the committee will be authorized to “investigate and submit policy recommendations concerning the status of the economic, technological, and security progress of the Chinese Communist Party and its competition with the United States.”
Let’s go, America! With the vast threat of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) rapidly escalating, a desperately needed measure has been put in place. This week, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) announced that he had selected a group of lawmakers to serve on the new House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition between the United States and the CCP. This bipartisan select committee is crucial for our national security in these times and will focus its attention on topics such as intellectual property theft and other direct threats from China to us or our allies. The resolution passed with overwhelming support – which should send a chilling message to China!
