WASHINGTON, D.C. — Chairman John Moolenaar of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party and Chairman Tim Walberg of the House Education and Workforce Committee are calling on the leaders of Eastern Michigan University, Oakland University, and the University of Detroit Mercy to end their schools’ partnerships with Chinese universities. In these partnerships, the Michigan universities are directly interacting with Chinese institutions that support the Chinese military and its efforts to gain a technological advantage over the United States. The universities’ partnerships also jeopardize the security of research that is funded by the American people through the Department of Defense, the National Science Foundation, and other agencies. 

WASHINGTON D.C. — Chairman John Moolenaar (R-MI) and Ranking Member Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) of the House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party today criticized Lam Research for its failure to disclose information about the company’s sale of semiconductor manufacturing equipment to the People’s Republic of China (PRC) in the Select Committee’s ongoing investigation. This is one of multiple investigatory steps the Select Committee is taking to shed light on China’s use of U.S. and allied semiconductor manufacturing equipment to undermine American security and interests.

WASHINGTON D.C. — This morning, Chairman John Moolenaar (R-MI) of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party welcomed President Trump's decision to impose across the board tariffs on the People's Republic of China.

The Chairman welcomed both the tariffs, that went into effect at midnight, and the closing of the "de minimis" loophole that allowed goods valued at under $800 to enter the country without inspections or duties. Last year, the Select Committee issued a report highlighting how abuse of "de minimis" allowed companies such as Shein and Temu to flood American markets with products, often produced through slave labor, and cost Americans their jobs. 

WASHINGTON DC — Chairman John Moolenaar (R-MI) and Ranking Member Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) of the House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party urged National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz, to review the potential national security benefits of placing export controls on semiconductor chips critical to the AI infrastructure of People's Republic of China (PRC) company, DeepSeek. As part of the review, the lawmakers also asked to strengthen controls on shipments through third countries that pose a high risk of diversion to the PRC.
