A conservative legal group has called on the Department of Justice to require the National Basketball Association (NBA) and its commissioner, Adam Silver, to register as agents of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
The America First Legal (AFL) foundation stated that the NBA and Silver should register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), which requires people and entities to register with the DOJ if they are lobbying or advocating on behalf of a foreign country. The NBA has an extensive and lucrative relationship with China, where the NBA is a big deal.
