China’s influence on the United States through foreign investment and land ownership raises complex national security and economic concerns. It’s essential to enhance the role of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) to scrutinize these transactions thoroughly. By doing so, we can ensure that such investments do not compromise national security, protect critical infrastructure, and maintain economic sovereignty. Strengthening CFIUS would involve more transparent and rigorous review processes, potentially leading to better-informed policy decisions about foreign ownership, especially in sensitive sectors. This approach aims not only to safeguard American interests but also to foster a balanced international economic relationship.
