AI Summary
This bill, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Politburo Accountability Act, aims to impose sanctions on senior officials of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), including members of the CCP Politburo, for their involvement in malign disinformation campaigns, theft of U.S. intellectual property, threats to the sovereignty of Taiwan, and the forced closure or destruction of places of worship in China.
