Unfortunately, it receives unwitting assistance from many Americans who have no idea their hard-earned investments are directly financing many of these malign actors,"said Rep. Gallagher. "This legislation builds on the President's actions against Communist Chinese military companies last week, and takes decisive action to defend our capital marketsand our technological superiorityagainst threats to our way of life. The Chinese Communist Party regularly breaches America's shores to steal our intellectual property, engage in espionage, feed off our markets, and more. The U.S. must counter the CCP's efforts to take advantage of our free and open system here at home, in addition to doing all we can to counter the CCP's malign activities abroad. This legislation is a critical step toward making sure that CCP military companies can no longer exploit U.S. markets in support of China's pernicious power projection, nuclear build-up, grave human rights abuses, and other malign activities,"said Rep. Liz Cheney. U.S. capital markets are the envy of the world. Access to these markets is a privilege and we should be under no obligation to allow our adversaries, that intend to do us harm, access. This bill protects our markets from exploitation and bans companies with ties to the CCP and their military, espionage, and human rights abuses,"said Rep. Chris Stewart. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
