“President Biden’s border policies have failed and there is an unprecedented level of illegal crossings occurring at the northern border. This legislation tells DHS that it must annually review the threats to the northern border and use its resources to protect the American people. Michigan is a border state, and this legislation will help make sure the northern border is secure,” said Moolenaar, a member of the Northern Border Security Caucus. 

“The 2025 NDAA is a victory for the American people and our courageous servicemembers. It’s also bad news for the Chinese Communist Party. I’m proud that the House has taken decisive action to enhance the Department of Defense’s ability to identify Chinese companies working on behalf of the Chinese military, prevent future Chinese drones from dominating our air space, and advance American research security, among many other accomplishments. I look forward to working with my colleagues in the Senate on this important legislation that will keep our country safe and make sure the United States is able to deter the mounting threats from Xi Jinping,” said Moolenaar. 

“Corporal Dewey was extraordinarily brave, and his selfless sacrifice in the Korean War saved lives. Naming the VA clinic in Cadillac will remind others of his heroic actions and inspire more to learn about him and his story. There has been tremendous community support for this renaming and we must never forget the sacrifices made by the men and women who served in the Korean War. I believe the Duane E. Dewey VA Clinic will serve as a lasting reminder of Duane’s service to our nation,” Congressman Moolenaar said.

“CFIUS was created with the intent of protecting America and stopping transactions that pose a risk to our national security. A lot has changed since CFIUS was created and unfortunately, it has been left behind. My legislation will increase Congressional oversight so the problems at CFIUS will be fixed and the committee can once again protect the American people from foreign investments that pose a national security risk," said Congressman Moolenaar.

“The Select Committee has uncovered indisputable evidence that Gotion High Tech and CATL have supply chains that are deeply connected to forced labor and the ongoing genocide of Uyghurs in China. That is why the Forced Labor Enforcement Task Force must immediately add Gotion High Tech and CATL to the UFLPA Entity List and block the shipments of these companies from entering the United States. The American people expect companies in the U.S. to avoid all involvement with the Chinese Communist Party’s campaign of genocide,” said Chairman Moolenaar.

“For months, President Biden claimed he did not have the executive authority to secure the border and end the crisis he created. Because of his failure, over 8 million people from around the world have illegally entered the country. His actions today will not stop the devastating border crisis he created. President Biden should reverse his failed executive actions, reinstate Remain in Mexico, build the border wall, and enforce the law,” said Congressman John Moolenaar.

“Voting is a fundamental right for American citizens to determine who will lead their communities and represent them in government. It is disgraceful that our nation’s capital city would allow illegal immigrants and foreign diplomats from any country to vote in local elections. The legislation I voted for today will repeal this out-of-touch decision by the far-left leaders of the capital city and help secure election integrity. The Democrats leading the Senate should pass this bill immediately, and President Biden should sign it into law,” said Moolenaar.

“The tragic passing of Shandra Eisenga should have never happened, and I am pleased my bill in her memory is moving forward. This vital bipartisan legislation will prevent future tuberculosis outbreaks with additional oversight on donor material providers, and serve as an honor to Shandra’s legacy. I will continue my work to make it law and stop deadly TB outbreaks,” said Moolenaar.
