Four Republican U.S. senators have introduced a proposal that aims to provide greater scrutiny of visas for Chinese Communist Party (CCP) members.

It would ban the issuance of nonimmigrant visas to the 93 million CCP members, according to a Nov. 17 statement by Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), the bill’s primary sponsor.

The legislation would disincentivize Chinese nationals from joining the CCP and restrict the CCP’s espionage and propaganda operations in the United States, according to the statement.

Currently, CCP members can enter the United States for vacation and perform non-official governmental business on 10-year, multi-entry B-1 and B-2 visas.

 

 

Rubio said that every CCP member is tasked with accomplishing the Party’s goal to “weaken and undermine the United States” and “to become the world’s sole power.”

“It defies common sense to allow CCP members to vacation, shop, or conduct business in our country,” Rubio said.

Co-sponsors included Sens. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.), Rick Scott (R-Fla.), and Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.).

Cramer said in the statement that CIA-level clearance isn’t necessary to know China is a bad actor, and the Americans need a strategic decoupling from China. He noted that the CCP “actively works against the United States’ interests every day.”

He believes this bill will provide greater scrutiny of visas for CCP members, regardless of how long they want to enter the country.

“Communist China is our enemy and is on a quest for total world domination,” Scott said, referring to how the CCP agents come to the United States to steal intellectual property, track Chinese citizens, and infiltrate critical research institutions.
