Bipartisan pressure is building to stop foreign nationals from purchasing American farm operations and receiving taxpayer subsidies.

The push to drain China’s influence from the U.S. economy has reached America’s farm country, as congressional lawmakers from both parties are looking at measures to crack down on foreign purchases of prime agricultural real estate.

House lawmakers recently advanced legislation to that effect, warning that China’s presence in the American food system poses a national security risk. And key Senate lawmakers have already shown interest in efforts to keep American farms in American hands.

    1. Washington better crackdown. It should be illegal for any foreigner or foreign country to buy and own any property in America. It should be illegal for any American to knowingly sell their property to a foreign entity.

  1. Any chance Hunter Biden and the “big Man” are involved in arranging the sale of American farms to China?

  2. It’s not just China buying up land here, There are several other foreigners also buying up properties, like some Middle Easterners.
