The top Republican on the House China committee is urging Columbia University to end its ties and those of its student groups with an organization he says advances the interests of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

The House Select Committee on the CCP announced on Nov. 6 that its chairman, Rep. John Moolenaar (R-Mich.), had sent a letter to Columbia University Acting President Claire Shipman, raising concerns about the school’s partnership with the China-United States Exchange Foundation (CUSEF), a Hong Kong-based nonprofit.
