The bill passed unanimously, setting it up for consideration by the full Senate.\n\n\u201cChina\u2019s auto industry was not built to compete, it was built to destroy American manufacturing, gut the middle class, and undermine our national security,\u201d said Senator Moreno. \u201cFor decades, D.C. globalists propped up Chinese businesses\u2014now it\u2019s time for Congress to stop this cancer before it spreads through the American auto market.\u201d\n\n\u201cChinese cars are surveillance packages on wheels, with the ability to collect on American citizens and transmit that data back to Beijing, said Senator Slotkin. \u201cThe Chinese Communist Party\u2019s playbook of heavily subsidizing their product and underselling the competition puts Michigan\u2019s auto industry and millions of American workers at risk. I\u2019m proud to see my bill advance out of committee today with unanimous bipartisan support, and I\u2019m looking forward to working alongside Senator Moreno, the American auto industry, and labor to get it over the finish line.\u201d\n\nSenator Moreno\u2019s Connected Vehicle Security Act protects American automakers and workers from the dire threat of Chinese automobiles by banning them and their connected components on American soil. This bill prohibits the import, sale, and operation of vehicles manufactured in China, or any other country of concern, and bans the use of Chinese-developed connected vehicle technologies, such as software and data systems, on America roads.", 1, "2026-08-10T06:13:07Z", "2026-08-10T06:14:46Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.moreno.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/moreno-bill-cracking-down-on-chinese-vehicles-passes-out-of-committee-unanimously/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.817623920738697, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
