(Chip Somodevilla\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN Newsroom<br \/>UPDATED 6:04 PM PT \u2013 Wednesday, June 9, 2021<\/h5>\n<p>Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) said he believes Communist China is America\u2019s biggest adversary. In a recent interview, the Alabama senator said China has taken advantage over the U.S. economy and used its trade and investment revenues to build up its military.<\/p>\n<p>Tuberville said we must not allow U.S. businesses and the federal government to invest in China. Last month, the senator proposed a bill to limit U.S. investment in China, which amounts to $700 billion each year.<\/p>\n<p>Tuberville stressed Beijing does not play by the rules and it\u2019s using America\u2019s own money to threaten U.S. national interests and security. He claimed that every business in China is ran by the Chinese Communist Party in some way, even if they say otherwise.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">As our economy recovers from the pandemic &amp; we face increasing aggression &amp; manipulation from China, the time to invest in our workforce and competitiveness is now. That\u2019s why today\u2019s bipartisan passage of the U.S. Innovation and Competition Act in the Senate is so monumental.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (@SenatorShaheen) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SenatorShaheen\/status\/1402395316901515269?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 8, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Meanwhile, Joe Biden has decided to expand a Trump-era ban on investments in Chinese defense and technology firms. Tuberville noted that his proposed legislation \u201cwould not allow any president from now on\u201d to allow investments of Thrift Savings Plan funds in China.<\/p>\n<p>Other senators are coming together in agreement, with Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) stating, \u201cit\u2019s alarming that billions of dollars from the retirement accounts of federal government employees, like our military, are currently invested in China and prop up companies that threaten American interests and values.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/report-joe-biden-plans-to-surrender-protections-for-u-s-steel-and-aluminum\/\">Report: Joe Biden Plans To Surrender Protections For U.S. Steel And Aluminum<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sen.
