Senator Jim Banks (R., Ind.) is putting forward legislation to protect American defense research from the Chinese Communist Party’s attempts to steal critical technology.
“For decades, the Chinese Communist Party has worked to steal American research and intellectual property to use against us. The Biden administration reversed key Trump-era policies that protected our universities and did little to stop secret research agreements that allowed DoD-funded researchers to sell their expertise to Chinese institutions,” Banks said in a statement to NR.
“My bill will strengthen protections and close security gaps to safeguard critical U.S. defense research.”
