[Congressional Record Volume 169, Number 84 (Thursday, May 18, 2023)] [House] [Page H2442] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] GOTION: BOUGHT AND PAID FOR BY THE CCP (Mrs. McCLAIN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute.) Mrs. McCLAIN. Mr. Speaker, I stand here today in strong opposition to the Chinese Communist Party's takeover of a town in my home State of Michigan. The CCP is using one of their state-controlled companies to implant thousands of Chinese workers and billions worth of Chinese technology just outside of Big Rapids. The company is called Gotion, and their technology is EV batteries. Now, Gotion likes to say that this is a good thing for Michigan and maybe even a good thing for America. Why? It is because they claim it brings jobs and money to our economy--but let's not forget the over $500 million worth of taxpayer dollars that will be used to subsidize and build this facility. That is, quite frankly, what I call BS. Gotion is bought and paid for by the CCP, and let's be clear: the CCP is not our friend. So I am not standing idly by and going to let this happen. I am going to stand with the people of the great State of Michigan to call this out and continue to bring attention to this and do something about this. That is why I am here today: to call out the CCP for this blatant attempt to overtake our State. ____________________
