WASHINGTON, D.C. – This week, every member of the House Select Committee on China – Republicans and Democrats alike – signed a bipartisan letter warning of a growing national security threat posed by Chinese robotics firm Unitree. In an unprecedented display of total bipartisan unity—something almost unheard of in today’s Congress—every member of the Select Committee joined this call to action.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Chairman John Moolenaar of the House Select Committee on China has sent a letter to Battle Creek, Michigan Mayor Mark Behnke warning him about the dangers of Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL), which is a Chinese military company that is partnering with Ford on a facility in Michigan. Moolenaar’s letter is in response to a letter Behnke sent the Michigan congressional delegation calling for taxpayer funding to support the Ford/CATL agreement. CATL was added to the Department of Defense’s list of known Chinese military companies in January, and the company helps the Chinese military develop battery technology that can be used in weapons systems, ships, aircraft, and vehicles.
In his letter to the mayor, Moolenaar warns:

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.”
Background
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Chairman Moolenaar of the House Select Committee on China and Chairman Rick Scott of the Senate Committee on Aging have sent a letter to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Paul Atkins urging the Commission to begin delisting Chinese companies that pose serious national security and investor protection risks.
The letter identifies Chinese firms listed on U.S. stock exchanges—including major players like Alibaba, Baidu, Hesai, and Zeekr—benefit from American capital markets while simultaneously advancing the strategic objectives of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), including military modernization, surveillance, and forced labor.
