The House Oversight Committee is launching the second phase of its sweeping investigation into the U.S. government’s response to the Chinese Communist Party’s influence operations and malign behavior, National Review has exclusively learned.

Representative James Comer (R., Ky.), the panel’s chairman, sent letters to nine federal agencies today requesting briefings on how each of them is grappling with threats posed by Beijing. Previously, the committee had sent a first tranche of letters to several other agencies in March, and it held a hearing last month focused on Chinese influence campaigns.
