Overview
- The House Homeland Security Committee, led by Chairman Mark Green, is investigating the Chinese-American Planning Council (CPC) for alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and misuse of taxpayer funds.
- Records indicate the CPC has received up to $445,969 since 2018 from CCP-linked entities such as the Bank of China and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China.
- Approximately 55% of the nonprofit's revenue comes from federal and state government grants, totaling over $1 million since 2022, according to congressional findings.
- A 2022 video reportedly shows CPC staff instructing illegal immigrants on how to avoid apprehension by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
- The CPC has not responded to requests for comment, as congressional probes into foreign influence in U.S. nonprofits continue.
