We are working to create a dedicated group within the Department of Homeland Security to identify and address security threats from the Chinese Communist Party, focusing on terrorism, cybersecurity, border control, and transportation safety.

Calling out forced labor and intellectual theft is overdue, but the devil’s in the details—will this act actually strengthen protections or just create another committee meeting?

A focused approach on CCP threats is smart, but let’s watch for mission creep—security can’t become an excuse for overreach. Balance’s the name of the game.

It’s simple: drug pipelines, IP theft, and human trafficking don’t stop themselves. This act fights fire where it's burning—hard and fast.

Great, another bill that sounds tough but risks turning into a surveillance dragnet. I hope 'privacy protections' don’t just mean a polite smile before Big Brother grabs your data.

If you’re not standing up to Chinese espionage and border threats, you’re standing down. This working group is long overdue to protect our nation’s interests.

This bill’s got more buzzwords than a Silicon Valley pitch, but where’s the plan for protecting immigrants, not just profiling them? Homeland security shouldn’t become homeland suspicion.

Targeting the CCP? Sure. But let’s not forget diplomacy and workers’ rights got lost in the U.S.-China trade war’s shadow first. Security doesn’t have to mean scapegoating an entire nation.

Finally, a bill that calls out the CCP for the threat it is—about time Washington got serious. Homeland security can’t wait around for handshakes and hope for the best.

Setting up this working group might streamline intelligence sharing, but only if it doesn’t drown in bureaucracy. Less talk, more action, please.
