Since first taking office in 2017, President Trump has led the charge to protect American manufacturers against China’s unfair economic practices. China, however, has continued to break international trade laws in order to undercut American companies. One of the most persistent attacks against America comes in the form of Chinese product dumping in our domestic markets. 

This week, Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) brought renewed attention to the risk to American patients posed by Chinese-made medical devices when he authored a letter to the Acting Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requesting an “enhanced review of medical devices manufactured in Communist China to address potential cybersecurity vulnerabilities.”

As China continues growing its influence in the automotive industry, the U.S. faces new vulnerabilities and security threats from vehicles with connectivity software developed overseas.

Protecting America Initiative senior advisor and former acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf authored a new op-ed in the Washington Examiner ahead of the Trump-Xi summit this week in China. Read the full op-ed here.

Voters around the country might be surprised to hear that 280 Members of the House of Representatives just voted for a policy that would give China the upper hand over American farmers. Unfortunately, that’s just what happened last week during the floor debate on the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026, better known as the “Farm Bill.”

Last Thursday, the Senate passed H.J. Res. 140, a resolution of disapproval on a Biden-era ban on mining in Minnesota. The resolution had previously passed the House in January and now goes to President Trump for his signature.

President Trump recently announced an upcoming trip to China from May 14 - 15. During this economic summit, the President will have the unique opportunity to address illicit Chinese trade practices. One issue that should be at the top of his list is stopping illegal Chinese “dumping” that is threatening to destroy critical U.S. industries.

New Ad Backs Campaign Praising Governor Abbott, Texas Republicans for Fighting Back Against Chinese-Owned Medical Device Companies

The Kentucky House and Senate recently passed legislation to protect key supply chains for American farmers and reduce our dependence on China. Governor Andy Beshear (D) vetoed the bill this week in an effort to appease environmentalists like the Sierra Club. 

One of the most important determinants of national security for the United States today is continuing access to critical minerals, which are resources that are key components in the manufacturing of products like advanced electronics and defense technology. Because the supply chain of critical minerals is especially vulnerable to disruption and they serve essential functions in the nation’s economic and security interests, any threat to their supply can have devastating effects on the U.S.  

Amid Iranian Conflict, Voters Across 24 Competitive Congressional Districts Will Reward Candidates Who Follow Trump’s Lead to Protect Domestic Manufacturers and Support 2026 Farm Bill.

The conflict in Iran is threatening our food supply, and Americans are concerned about what it means for American farmers’ ability to grow our food. Our survey of voters in the top battleground congressional districts finds Americans agree: we must do everything in our power to protect the domestic pesticides supply to keep food prices low.

Since the beginning of Operation Epic Fury, there has understandably been significant focus on Iran's attempts to stop the flow of oil passing through the Strait of Hormuz. Another major concern for Americans is the threat of a fertilizer shortage that could devastate our farmers just as the growing season begins. 

On the heels of President Trump's invocation of the Defense Production Act, the Protecting America Initiative (PAI) today launched a new ad urging Congress to stand with the President and secure America's food supply from the CCP by passing the 2026 Farm Bill.

Republican primary voters in America’s Heartland (KY, KS, and IA) are deeply concerned about America’s reliance on China and the rising costs facing consumers and America’s farmers and ranchers.

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is using compromised technology to infiltrate American healthcare and steal sensitive patient data. Fortunately, the Trump Administration has taken aggressive action to stop the weaponization of our supply chains. Now, leaders in Texas are stepping up to ensure that business as usual with Beijing doesn't come at the cost of patient safety or national security.
