In the first hearing of the House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the U.S. and China, both parties agree that the U.S.-China relationship should be prioritized.
Wisconsin GOP Rep. Mike Gallagher, who chairs the panel, told NPR's Steve Inskeep ahead of the hearing"a Chinese spy balloon drifting over the country and circling our nuclear ICBM facilities has a way of sort of bringing the threat close to home."Illinois Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, the ranking Democrat on the panel, says his constituents often reach out to him with concerns about China's massive influence.
Gallagher is worried about TikTok's ability to influence the flow of information that Americans see and share, telling NPR"it can be used to influence the news, what people see and talk about, and, therefore, to interfere in our society and our politics and our very democracy. So I think we're nearing a very dangerous inflection point here."
Rubio said the way China has deployed high tech devices means the U.S. has to come up with a multipronged response. The House Foreign Affairs panel is also holding a hearing with top Biden Administration officials on Tuesday to discuss the threat Chairman Mike McCaul, R-Texas, says emanates from the Chinese Communist Party.says it's time for Congress to change how China is treated in international agreements."There's no reason that China should continue to be categorized as a developing nation,"Van Hollen is working with Utah Republican Sen.
