Feenstra Votes to Establish Select Committee to Counter Growing Threat of China

January 10, 2023

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra (R-Hull) voted for, and the U.S. House of Representatives passed, House Resolution 11, establishing the Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party.

“The United States is the strongest and most prosperous nation in the world, but China will stop at nothing to threaten our economy, buy up American farmland, and undermine our interests,” said Rep. Feenstra. “By establishing a select committee to counter the Chinese Communist Party’s alarming aggression, Republicans are sending a clear message to China and their sympathizers that we will not be intimidated by their reckless behavior. In Congress, I will continue my work to prevent China from purchasing our farmland and jeopardizing our national security.”
