CONG. CARTER: Combatting The Chinese Communist Party


The Texas Department of Criminal Justice is preparing to reopen the Bartlett prison facility as the state’s first ‘Innovation’ Unit.

Insider Report: AUSTIN, Texas (WASHINGTON, D.C.) – This week, House Republicans brought a series of bills to the floor to combat the threat of the Chinese Communist Party and restore the strength and dominance of the United States. Over 25 bills were passed to secure our supply chains, protect American technology, and defend our values. China is the biggest threat to the United States, and insulating the United States against CCP aggression is paramount. I was proud to vote in favor of these bills to make for a stronger America. Below are just a few of the most important bills that were considered this week:
 
  • H.R. 1516 – DHS Restrictions on Confucius Institutes and Chinese Entities of Concern Act - This bill restricts funding to American institutions of higher education that maintain a relationship with a Chinese entity of concern or Confucius Institute, making them ineligible to receive any funds.
  • H.R. 1398 – Protect America’s Innovation and Economic Security from CCP Act of 2024 - This bill reinstates and renames the China Initiative as the CCP Initiative to counter the CCP and Chinese government’s espionage efforts on U.S. intellectual property and academic institutions, helps prosecute those who engage in the theft of trade secrets and espionage, and defends U.S. critical infrastructure from threats from our adversaries.
  • H.R. 9456 – Protecting American Agriculture from Foreign Adversaries Act of 2024 – This bill supports the country’s food security and national security, combating foreign adversaries’ attempts to buy up America’s farmland by improving the tracking of foreign-owned land and requiring the Secretary of Agriculture to review agricultural transactions and purchases made by these adversaries.
  • H.R. 1425 No WHO Pandemic Preparedness Treaty Without Senate Approval Act - This bill requires that any agreement reached by the World Health Assembly be treated as a treaty and, therefore, be ratified by a supermajority of the Senate as outlined in the Constitution.
  • H.R. 7980 – End Chinese Dominance of Electric Vehicles in America Act of 2024 – This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to exclude vehicles with batteries that contain materials sourced from foreign entities of concern from the clean vehicle credit, and closes the ‘Chinese Billionaire Loophole’ and the ‘Chinese Manufacturing Loophole.’
Other News In Brief The Texas Department of Criminal Justice is preparing to reopen the Bartlett prison facility as the state’s first ‘Innovation’ Unit, promising inmates a future in the workforce and promising the city of Bartlett infrastructure and economic improvements.
