Governor Greg Abbott of Texas has taken decisive action to protect American interests against the encroaching threat of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
In a bold move, he issued executive orders prohibiting state investment entities from making any new investments in China, and mandating the divestiture of existing investments at the first available opportunity.
"Texans should never have to subsidize our most dangerous competitor," Abbott stated, echoing a sentiment that resonates strongly among conservatives across the nation.
This directive follows concerns regarding the extensive influence the CCP wields over various sectors within the United States.
Just last week, the Department of Homeland Security announced the blacklisting of 29 Chinese companies for their complicity in forced labor, underscoring the troubling ethical implications involved in engagement with China.
The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act serves as a crucial tool in addressing these human rights violations. The proactive measures from the DHS and Abbott’s firm stance indicate a growing recognition that economic cooperation with China comes at a steep price, particularly when it involves the suffering of the Uyghur people and other oppressed minorities.
Experts have warned for years about the CCP's overarching plans to undermine the United States from within, utilizing financial networks and cultural influence to gain leverage over political and economic systems.
As Abbott leads the charge in Texas, his actions send a clear message to Washington: it is time to put America first and dismantle our financial ties with a regime that aims to weaken us.
The governor's directives not only highlight the need for a united front against foreign adversaries but also serve as a model for other states to reevaluate their own investment strategies.
By setting such a precedent, Abbott is fostering a sense of national security that prioritizes American values and citizens' well-being.
In this fight against the CCP's influence, conservative leaders must continue to advocate for policies that defend American freedoms and uphold ethical standards in trade.
Abbott’s decisive measures, combined with federal efforts to hold the CCP accountable, illustrate a commitment to safeguarding America from this formidable threat.
It’s time for all states to follow Texas' lead and take a firm stand against those who would jeopardize our sovereignty and way of life.
