 to the ,committee on ,foreign ,affairs 
,,resolution  ,condemning the cyber     
attacks on ,american persons and        
organizations conducting research       
related to ,,covid-#ai and expressing   
the sense of the ,house of              
,representatives that those responsible 
for perpetrating such belligerent acts  
should face consequences4  ,whereas the 
novel ,,covid-#ai pandemic is a global  
crisis that has killed over #abh1jjj    
,american citizens2 ,whereas ,american  
research institutions in both the public
 and private sectors have been the      
target of attempted cyber network       
attacks while working diligently to     
develop treatments and a cure for this  
disease2 ,whereas health care1          
pharmaceutical1 and research sectors    
working on ,,covid-#ai response are the 

prime targets of these attacks2         
,whereas1 on ,may #ac1 #bjbj1 the       
,federal ,bureau of ,investigation      
7,,fbi7 and the ,cybersecurity and      
,infrastructure ,security ,agency       
7,,cisa7 issued a public announcement to
 raise awareness of the cyber threat to 
,,covid-#ai-related research and that   
any potential theft of such research    
would jeopardize the delivery of secure1
 effective1 and efficient treatment     
options for ,american citizens2 ,whereas
 the ,,fbi and ,,cisa attributed the    
attacks on these ,american organizations
 to the ,people's ,republic of ,china

history of conducting cyber-attacks on  
,americans and the ,united ,states      
,government1 including the #bjae hack of
 the ,office of ,personnel ,management1 
which resulted in the theft of private  
information belonging to millions of    
,american citizens3 ,now1 therefore1 be 
it ,that-- 7#a7 the ,house of           
,representatives condemns in the        

harshest of terms the cyber-attacks     
perpetrated against those ,american     
persons and organizations engaged in    
,,covid-#ai research2 and  7#b7 it is   
the sense of the ,house of              
,representatives that the               
,administration should respond to these 
attacks to punish those responsible and 
to dissuade others from engaging in the 
same acts by utilizing existing         
authorities1 including the              
implementation of sanctions against     
those foreign persons engaged in such   
acts at the behest of the ,,prc4
