US Republicans push for security review of China-linked battery company
- Republican lawmakers have called for a security review of Gotion Inc., a China-linked EV battery producer looking to establish a presence in the United States.
- The lawmakers are concerned about Gotion's ties to China's Communist Party and worry about foreign entities benefiting from U.S. Electric vehicle subsidies. They urge the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States to review the situation and potentially require divestment.
- This push for review aligns with President Joe Biden's focus on electric vehicles and batteries as critical components of transportation infrastructure. Republicans have also raised similar concerns about Tesla's relationship with Chinese battery manufacturer CATL and Ford Motor's investment with CATL.
