A CCP “intelligence service” called the United Front Work Department (UFWD) operates Overseas Chinese Service Centers (OCSCs) out of nonprofits in at least seven U.S. cities, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation recently revealed. Established between 2014 and 2017, the U.S. OCSCs are located in San Francisco, California; Houston, Texas; Omaha, Nebraska; St. Paul, Minnesota; Salt Lake City, Utah; St. Louis, Missouri and Charlotte, North Carolina, according to Chinese state-media reports.

Republicans senators Ted Budd and Thom Tillis of North Carolina; John Cornyn and Ted Cruz of Texas; Josh Hawley and Eric Schmitt of Missouri; Mike Lee and Mitt Romney of Utah as well as Deb Fischer and Pete Ricketts of Nebraska asked the DOJ to provide a briefing about the OCSC network by July 31, 2023, according to a letter sent to Attorney General Merrick Garland on Monday that was obtained by the DCNF. …

The senators’ letter also included a number of questions, such as whether or not the U.S. OCSC branches had engaged in any illegal activity. …

The UFWD’s primary missions include influence operations and intelligence collection, according to the U.S.-China Economic Security and Review Commission. The DCNF also discovered that U.S. OCSC officials traveled to China in 2018 for a “work conference,” during which they met with personnel from China’s national police authority, the Ministry of Public Security (MPS), according to multiple Chinese state-run media reports. …

“The ongoing discovery of additional OCSCs raises the question of whether DOJ’s response sufficiently addresses the threat, particularly because OCSCs have openly operated for several years and their activities have been reportedly documented in Chinese state media and social media posts,” the senators wrote. …
