WASHINGTON, D.C. – Last week, Chairman John Moolenaar and Ranking Member Raja Krishnamoorthi of the House Select Committee on China sent a letter urging the State Department, Commerce Department, and Federal Communications Commission to take action against HarmonyOS – the operating system developed by Huawei.

HarmonyOS is also intended for use in products other than smartphones, tablets, and computers, including connected vehicles and smart devices.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – the White House's announcement of increased funding for the Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), Chairman John Moolenaar of the House Select Committee on China issued the following statement:

"I fully support the increase in BIS funding, as recommended by the Select Committee on China in our recent DeepSeek investigation. However, funding alone isn’t enough to finish the job. We need to modernize BIS from top to bottom—giving it the structure, authorities, and urgency needed to stop the Chinese Communist Party from exploiting American technology. I look forward to working with the administration to deliver real results.”
