Mission Statement

Under the totalitarian leadership of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), China has become the United States’ strategic adversary and most consequential foreign policy challenge of this century. Complacency towards China has allowed the CCP’s quest for dominance and deceptive behavior to go largely unchecked on the world stage for far too long. This campaign will help educate the American public and others about the CCP’s threat to our values and interests across various domains including: security, academia, commerce, technology, and governance. This is not just a resource, but a call to action: the United States must form an enduring and comprehensive strategy with our allies to counter China’s coercive influence, impose consequences for their malign actions, and better compete with them globally.

Our challenge is with the Chinese Communist Party and not the Chinese people or their rich culture. Immigrants of Chinese descent are deeply intertwined into the fabric of our society. Their entrepreneurship, work ethic, family values, and commitment to the American Dream have enriched communities across our country.
