Raja Krishnamoorthi, D-Ill., sent a letter asking Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin for updates on the mandatory assessment, highlighting one company\u2019s operations in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe [People\u2019s Republic of China\u2019s] 14th five-year plan identifies dominance in biotechnology as critical to \u2018strengthen [China\u2019s] science and technological power\u2019 and calls to deepen military-civil science and technology collaboration in the sector,\u201d they wrote in a Friday letter to Austin. \u201cUrgent action is needed to identify the [Chinese] biotechnology entities at the forefront of this work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fiscal 2024 defense policy bill requires the Pentagon to assess whether any biotechnology companies belong on its list of Chinese military firms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The assessment is due in June, but the letter asks the Pentagon to brief staffers from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/congress\/2023\/01\/10\/gop-pick-to-lead-house-china-committee-vows-to-win-new-cold-war\/\" target=\"_blank\">the House\u2019s Committee on the Chinese Communist Party<\/a> on the provision by May 1. Gallagher <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/congress\/2024\/03\/22\/granger-gallagher-leave-committee-posts-as-house-gop-majority-shrinks\/\" target=\"_blank\">recently announced he will resign on April 19<\/a>, with Rep. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/congress\/2024\/03\/25\/house-speaker-picks-house-china-panel-leader-to-replace-gallagher\/\" target=\"_blank\">John Moolenaar, R-Mich., set to take his place as chairman<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gallagher and Krishnamoorthi singled out six Chinese biotech firms that they believe warrant potential inclusion on the Pentagon\u2019s list of Chinese military companies. The list includes Innomics, which has operated out of Massachusetts since at least 2010 as a subsidiary of China\u2019s BGI Americas Corp. The other BGI subsidiary on the list is STOmics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The four other Chinese biotech companies the letter cites are MGI Group, Origincell, Vazyme Biotech and Axibo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Congress first mandated the Pentagon maintain a list of Chinese military companies in the FY21 defense policy bill. It requires the Defense Department to track companies \u201cidentified as a military civil-fusion contributor to the Chinese defense-industrial base\u201d and \u201cengaged in providing commercial services, manufacturing, producing or exporting.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The list does not result in sanctions. However, it bans the Defense Department from buying goods or services from the designated Chinese military companies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The House&#8217;s China panel
