Infiltrating Our Institutions: Moolenaar, Foxx Speak at Alexander Hamilton Society Event on CCP Influence at U.S. Universities

WASHINGTON D.C. - Yesterday evening, Chairman John Moolenaar (R-MI) of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party and Education and the Workforce Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC) spoke on a panel at the Alexander Hamilton Society's event "Back in Class: Foreign Funding & Malign Influence on U.S. Higher Education"

At the event Chairman Moolenaar and Chairwoman Foxx outlined the findings from their joint report, "CCP on the Quad: How American Taxpayers and Universities Fund the CCP's Advanced Military and Technological Research," uncovering that American university research aids the Chinese military.

"We've collaborated together on this report, which really looks at the STEM fields... high-tech research investments, and specifically research that was funded by the Department of Defense," said Chairman Moolenaar. "What we found was there were close to 9,000 joint technical papers presented with collaboration between Chinese and American University Professors... There was research in sophisticated technology areas - AI, advanced physics - all these applications that can be used for military purposes, against American servicemen and women."
