The
House of Representatives passed legislation targeting universities for
maintaining partnerships with Chinese government-backed entities,
including Confucius Institutes, in a bipartisan manner 266 to 153 on
Wednesday afternoon.
Fifty-five House Democrats backed Texas Republican Rep. August Pfluger’s bill,
which would restrict Department of Homeland Security funding to
universities that have partnerships with “a Chinese entity of concern”
or Confucius Institute, a Chinese government-backed organization. Lawmakers across both parties have accused
Confucius Institutes of disseminating Chinese Communist Party (CCP)
propaganda and conducting espionage at American universities. (RELATED: Trump’s Tariffs Trigger Turmoil In China As Country’s Economic Tailspin Intensifies Per New Data) https://dailycaller.com/2025/05/07/house-passes-bill-universities-chinese-influence-hubs/
