Speaker of the House of Representatives Mike Johnson (R-La.) said he supports renewing the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for a second term, noting its instrumental role in exposing the dangers of the Chinese regime.

The House Select Committee on the CCP was founded in January 2023 to build consensus on China’s threat and develop a plan to defend the American people and economy.
