House Oversight Investigates VP Candidate Tim Walz's China Ties

James Comer requests FBI documents on Walz's engagements with Chinese entities, raising concerns about national security.

Walz has visited China approximately 30 times since 1989, including for educational exchanges and personal trips.
The investigation focuses on Walz's connections with CCP-linked entities and officials, questioning potential influence on U.S. policy.
Walz has been involved in human rights advocacy, including meeting with Tibetan leaders and sponsoring related legislation.
Republican critics argue Walz's extensive China ties pose a risk, while Walz's spokesperson defends his record on standing up to the CCP.
The probe comes as GOP shifts focus from President Biden to the new Democratic ticket of Harris and Walz.
