Moolenaar addresses threats to US innovation from Chinese Communist Party

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?"

In his speech, the Chairman outlined the threat posed by the Chinese Communist Party to American technological innovation and economic prosperity.

"For centuries, America has been the promised land for the best and brightest across the world, who wanted to explore the frontiers of human knowledge or create companies without red tape," said Chairman Moolenaar. "We must continue to be that promised land, and that means ensuring entrepreneurs are free to innovate, universities are free from foreign influence, and students are free to speak their mind. Export and outbound capital restrictions are a necessary condition for our victory over the CCP, and by combining these types of tools with investment in our own innovation, we can achieve victory."
