A bipartisan group of House lawmakers on July 11 announced a proposal that would compel individuals who have worked for foreign governments, particularly the Chinese communist regime, to retroactively register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA).
Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-Wis.), who chairs the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), along with Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-Ill.), the ranking Democrat on the committee, introduced the bill, which is aimed at strengthening the enforcement of FARA to counter the CCP’s influence on U.S. soil.
