The CCP seeks to leverage the whole of the Chinese nation against the United States, presenting an especially grave threat to the homeland.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video_fit_container\">\n\t\t<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"671\" height=\"377\" class=\"video_frame\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zeZmy_QFj7Y?wmode=transparent&#038;wmode=opaque\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n\t<\/div>\n<h3>Whole-of-Nation Defense Needed<\/h3>\n<p>Kahangama said the CCP regime \u201coperates globally\u201d and is \u201cusing all instruments of national power to target the United States\u201d in its quest for global hegemony. The United States must mobilize a whole-of-nation defense against such aggression, he said. The methods employed by the regime to undermine U.S. influence are just too varied to warrant any other response.<\/p>\n<h3>CCP Is \u2018Trying to Undermine\u2019 US<\/h3>\n<p>Subcommittee Chair August Pfluger (R-Texas) painted the growing competition between the CCP and the United States as one between democratic norms and values and rampant authoritarianism.

The ranking Democrat member Seth Magaziner (D-R.I.) concurred, saying that the CCP is aiming to systematically destroy the United States\u2019 economic advantage through illicit means.<\/p>\n<h3>Whole-of-Government Response Needed<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cBeijing presents an especially grave threat to the homeland,\u201d Kahangama said. \u201cWe must match our adversaries\u2019 determination through a whole-of-government response, with DHS playing a leading role on the front lines of that defense every day.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>CCP\u2019s Economic Espionage<\/h3>\n<p>Magaziner said, \u201cEach year, the CCP\u2019s economic espionage against American business costs between $225 billion and 600 billion. It is indisputable \u2026 that the CCP is actively trying to undermine the economy and security of the United States.
