• Scrutinizing Foreign Investment: How Much Congressional Involvement Is Too Much?

Foreign direct investment is vital to the continued growth and vitality of the U.S. economy. Except for transactions affecting national security, foreign investment receives little scrutiny from the U.S. government. This Note addresses the appropriate level of congressional influence in the review of foreign-investment transactions. In regulating foreign investment, Congress must delicately balance the competing interests of national security and open investment. The latest amendment to regulations in this area is the Foreign Investment and National Security Act of 2007 ("FINSA"). Several changes brought about by FINSA make meaningful improvements to U.S. regulation of foreign investment; however, FINSA inappropriately increases congressional involvement in the review process conducted ...

• No Way, Huawei ; Preserving Our Great Wall Between China and Security Technology

Last summer, a Chinese telecom- munications giant founded by a former People's Lib- eration Army (PLA) engi- neer was rebuffed in its effort to sell vast quantities of equipment to Sprint Nextel - an American company that provides communication services to the U.S. Defense Department and other government agencies. An interagency group known as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) took a hard look at the proposal and, quite sensibly, rejected it on national security grounds. Unbeknownst to CFIUS at the time, Huawei was making another, unscrutinized and problematic investment in the United States. It bought pieces of 3Leaf, a now-insolvent pioneer in "cloud computing" technology, including intellectual property with obvious military applications.

• Insist That Dubai Ports World Comply with Anti-Boycott Laws, Ajcongress Writes to Committee On Foreign Investment in the U.S.

NEW YORK, March 2 /U.S. Newswire/ -- American Jewish Congress Executive Director Neil B. Goldstein wrote yesterday to Secretary of the Treasury John Snow, the Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), asking the CFIUS to investigate reports that Dubai Ports World (DPW) actively enforces the Arab economic boycott of Israel. Concerning DPW's proposed purchase of P&O, gaining control of several American ports, Goldstein emphasized that defense of a decision in DPW's favor "rests in large part on the importance of free international trade for the national security of the United States and its allies, including Israel." He called upon CFIUS to "explore whether DPW's presence in the United States would strengthen its ability to enforce the illegal Arab boyc...
