WASHINGTON D.C. — Chairman John Moolenaar (R-MI) of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party wrote to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin about the growing threat to U.S. economic and national security posed by Chinese state-subsidized LCD (liquid crystal display) and OLED (organic light emitting diode) companies, BOE Technology Group and Tianma Microelectronics Co.. While LCD and OLED are common technologies found in televisions and similar devices, Moolenaar highlights the technologies’ critical role in our own weapon systems and notes that BOE and Tianma have accumulated large amounts of the global display market through state subsidies, posing a supply chain risk for our military.

WASHINGTON D.C. -- This morning, Chairman John Moolenaar (R-MI) of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party delivered remarks as the featured speaker at the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation's event "Can China Innovate in Advanced Industries?"

WASHINGTON D.C. — Chairman John Moolenaar (R-MI) of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party and Congressman Greg Murphy M.D. (R-NC) sent sent a letter urging United States Secretary of the Treasury, Janet Yellen to include U.S. Coast Guard facilities and other sensitive sites under the jurisdiction of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS). The letter also asks the Secretary to hold CFIUS reviews retroactively when a site is newly added to CFIUS’s list of sensitive sites. As our adversaries encroach on U.S. territory and Chinese Communist Party-affiliated land purchases increase across the United States, the lawmakers stress the importance of protecting Coast Guard bases just as we protect military bases in the CFIUS process.
