The "Protect Our Universities Act" provides a critical safeguard requiring research students from these nations to undergo a background screening to take part in “sensitive research projects," and prohibits the use of tech developed by companies like Huawei, ZTE, and Kaspersky. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Hawley warned that our universities are "key targets of espionage and intellectual property theft" and that “for too long, these countries have sent students...to collect sensitive research that they can later use to develop capabilities that threaten our national security." — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Hawley: "This bill takes much-needed steps to ensure our research stays out of the hands of foreign adversaries who are proactively rooting for our failure. Our scientific exchange must not be exploited to advance the destructive agendas of Beijing, Moscow, or Tehran." — PolitiTweet.org
