Congresswoman Claudia Tenney sent a letter to Governor Kathy Hochul demanding an investigation into the Governor and her administration following the Department of Justice’s recent indictment of Linda Sun, a high-ranking official of the Hochul administration, for acting as an agent of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
Tenney’s letter calls for a bipartisan panel to be appointed to investigate Sun, who is accused of using her position to further the interests and promote policies beneficial to the CCP and her involvement in the Hochul administration. Sun is reported to scrub anti-CCP or pro-Taiwan rhetoric from New York State officials’ remarks, fraudulently use New York State resources to assist CCP officials in entering the United States, block meeting requests from anti-CCP or pro-Taiwan organizations, and leverage her position for private material gain. Tenney said this follows numerous reports that the CCP operates secret police stations in New York City to monitor, intimidate, and control Chinese New Yorkers, and New York State has yet to take serious action against these stations.
“Under Governor Hochul, the Chinese Communist Party has successfully placed a spy at the highest levels of our state government,” said Congresswoman Tenney. “Operating under their influence, Linda Sun was able to censor speeches and conceal information to further the CCP’s mission while undermining New York’s vital relationship with Taiwan. We must conduct a thorough investigation to uncover the full extent of Sun’s actions and their impact on our government and economy. It is imperative that no compromised CCP agents remain in the administration or are permitted to enter in the future.”
