Sen. Cotton sounds alarm on Chinese investors buying US farmland: 'This is a national security threat'
Fox News
Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., reacts to Chinese investors purchasing an alarming amount of U.S. farmland and discusses the national security implications.
SEN. TOM COTTON: We're still working with Democrats and Republicans trying to explain the threat to them and explain what we need to do to stop it again. In China, you don't just get to leave the country or take your money out of the country without government permission, government oversight. It's not like America. You can't just go buy a farm in Canada. You can't get a timeshare in Mexico. The people that are coming out of China to buy farmland and food and agricultural companies are doing so because the Chinese communists want them to. This is a national security threat and it surrenders the massive strategic advantage we have here in America that we are the world's breadbasket while China can't feed its own people without food imports.
