Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) has unveiled a string of new bills aimed at holding the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) accountable for any actions that affect U.S. national security, including through sanctions and cracking down on surveillance.

The five bills were introduced by the Republican lawmaker on Feb. 16 shortly after a number of objects, including a high-altitude Chinese surveillance balloon, were detected in American airspace and were subsequently shot down.
