Gallagher. This report lays the foundation for a whole of society approach to counter the threats posed by the Chinese Communist Party and provides a blueprint for bipartisan action. Our work has just begun, and it's time to turn these recommendations many of which have already passed the House or Senate into law. The China Task Force included a number of common-sense solutions to better secure our medical and national security supply chains, and cement American leadership in the technologies of tomorrow, and restore fairness in our economic relationship with China. The report also endorsed a number of initiatives Rep. Gallagher worked on in the House, including: TheNETWORKS Act, a bill introduced by Rep. Gallagher and Sen. Tom Cotton that would freeze foreign 5G companies engaging in economic or industrial espionage, like Huawei, from the U.S. banking system. A whole host of recommendations made by the Cyberspace Solarium Commission, including Continuity of Economy Planning, Cyber State of Distress, and ICT Industrial Strategy. Rep.
