Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) is calling for the United States to disentangle from the Chinese regime, as it continues to steal U.S. intellectual property and spy on Americans, according to a new report compiled by his office.

“The will and need to confront communist China is growing. Now it’s time for action,” said Cotton in a speech at the Reagan Institute on Feb. 18, where he also unveiled his report titled, “Beat China: Targeted Decoupling and the Economic Long War.”
