WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Chairman John Moolenaar (R-MI) and Ranking Member Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) of the House Select Committee on China sent a bipartisan letter to Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth expressing strong support for the AUKUS partnership and calling for an unwavering commitment to it amid Beijing's growing military aggression.

“The People’s Republic of China’s rapid expansion of its nuclear, conventional, cyber, and space capabilities—many specifically designed to target the armed forces of the United States and our allies—threatens U.S. interests and jeopardizes the security of our partners," the letter writes.

The commissioner has been a central figure in the CCP's crackdown on democracy and undermining of Hong Kong's autonomy.

Secretary Rubio's March 2025 decision to sanction former Hong Kong Police Commissioner Raymond Siu sent a message: the United States stands with Hong Kongers. Just days after the sanctions were levied, Siu retired.
