“Gotion has not disclosed the materials it submitted to CFIUS and has not released the NDAs it forced Michigan officials to sign. While it insists on secrecy, one document everyone has seen is Gotion High Tech's articles of association where it pledges allegiance to the Chinese Communist Party and says it will carry out party activities. Today’s announcement from Gotion is not an approval from CFIUS, but another example of the broken CFIUS process where the government claims deals are outside its jurisdiction. Last year, CFIUS said it had no jurisdiction to block a CCP-affiliated company from buying farmland less than 15 miles from an Air Force base in North Dakota. The military and the local community had to stop the deal because CFIUS failed to protect our nation’s security,” said Moolenaar.

"Under President Biden's open border policies, there has been a surge in the number of migrants who have illegally crossed the U.S.-Canada border, with human trafficking and drug smuggling occuring more frequently. This is unacceptable," said Moolenaar. "I am proud to join the Northern Border Security Caucus and work with my colleagues to secure the northern border and protect our communities."  

“The WHO’s decision to add North Korea to its executive board is just the latest disgrace from an organization that has a long history of politicizing its mission and siding with dictators and authoritarian regimes. I support legislation that will require the U.S. to leave the WHO and end taxpayer funding for the organization. We cannot be a part of an organization that elects North Korea to its executive board,” said Congressman John Moolenaar.

"Today’s legislation is a win for the American people because it ends the broken status quo in Washington and stops the Biden spending spree that made Americans poorer with record-high inflation. The bill also includes my proposal to save billions of dollars in unused COVID funding and avoids a disastrous default on the national debt. Finally, the bill brings accountability back to the government and saves billions of dollars by adding work requirements for welfare for able-bodied Americans,” said Moolenaar.

"For four months, President Biden has jeopardized the credit of the United States and refused to work across the aisle to address the national debt. He ignored repeated calls for negotiations and now, he is one week away from putting Michigan families through a disastrous default. I voted to avoid a default and responsibly cut COVID spending that is sitting in departments in Washington D.C. Biden must follow Republicans’ lead and come to an agreement to avoid a disastrous default," said Congressman John Moolenaar. 

"President Biden wants to make hardworking Michigan families pay for the degrees and debt individuals ran up when they made the choice to go to college. His unconstitutional plan was never passed by Congress and it penalizes Michigan residents who looked at their finances and made the decision not to go into debt. It also penalizes people who played by the rules and paid off their loans," said Moolenaar. "Colleges and universities should do more to lower costs and provide value to students so they can have successful careers. President Biden’s law-breaking attempt to spend billions of dollars without congressional approval is not the answer to the costs of college."

"The Department of Energy has made the right decision by revoking taxpayer funding for a CCP-affiliated company. When are the State of Michigan and Green Township going to do the right thing? It is a historic mistake to bring these companies into our local communities when every action the CCP takes seeks to undermine America. The CCP-connected Gotion project is wrong for Mecosta County and Michigan," said Congressman John Moolenaar.
