The Biden Crises

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. BABIN. Madam Speaker, my Democrat colleagues have made it absolutely crystal clear that they have no intention of holding Communist China accountable, for anything. Whether it is stealing our intellectual property, flooding our colleges with Communist propaganda, committing academic espionage, or unleashing COVID-19 onto the world, this malicious regime does whatever it wants to and with zero consequences.

Most shocking of all, is that much of their treacherous behavior is being covered up by the Democrat Party, who are more interested in Beijing's success than our very own American success. Let's be clear, the American COMPETES Act is not about contending with China; it is about surrendering to the Chinese Communist Party.

While our country deteriorates from skyrocketing inflation, raging crime, open borders, crumbling supply chains, over 100,000 American deaths from overdoses on Chinese fentanyl, the Democrats spend their time empowering our adversaries with bad policies and American tax dollars.

Democrats claim to care about human rights, but they will not make the Chinese Communist Party answer for its atrocities against the Uyghurs. Democrats prioritize climate change above everything else, but make no effort to call out China, the world's biggest polluter. Democrats fight to keep COVID-19 in the spotlight, but refuse to hold a single hearing about the virus' origins. Shameful. The list goes on and on.

Americans can see this is hypocrisy, and as my friend from Louisiana said, there will be a reckoning this coming November. The American people deserve better from those that they elect to keep them safe.
