(READ) Senators propose law to fight foreign influence in U.S. universities

Dated: June 24, 2021 by Staff 1 Comment

      

Several U.S. senators recently introduced a bill to combat malign Chinese and other foreign influence in American colleges and universities.

Communist China has infiltrated American colleges and universities. It is imperative we cut off Beijingโ€™s access to funnel money in exchange for influence in higher education. Our childrenโ€™s education should not be available for purchase by the CCP

Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn)

The Foreign Funding Accountability Act would amend a law already in place that is designed to protect U.S. higher learning institutions from foreign influence, but the senators say the law lacks enforcement and compliance.

The new bill would:

  • Require the disclosure of full names of foreign donating entitiesโ€”individual, institutional, or otherwise.
  • Require the disclosure of the specific purposes of foreign gift-transactions.
  • Close the loophole allowing gifting by registered foreign agents.
  • Close the loophole exempting in-kind gifts from counting towards the disclosure minimum.
  • Clarify that foreign gifts to university foundations are not exempt from disclosure.
  • Lower the minimum reporting threshold for disclosure in terms of dollar amountโ€”from $250,000 to $25,000.
  • Levy a graduated civil penalty structure against institutions willfully, and repeatedly violating Section 117.
