Good morning,

Here is the Texas Minute for Monday, August 1, 2022.

– Brandon Waltens

In recent years, Texans have been made increasingly aware of the bias, indoctrination, and hostility toward self-governance present in the state’s education system.

But did you know that Communist China has been infiltrating our public schools for years? For months, the Texas Scorecard investigative Team has been hard at work tracking the influence Communist China is building in the Lone Star State.

The first series of articles, available now, focus on China's infiltration into Texas; universities, as well as K-12 schools, through Confucius Institutes and Confucius Classrooms.

Confucius Institutes target higher education, while Confucius Classrooms target K-12 public schools. Both introduced Chinese Communist Party money and indoctrination materials to our education network.

Our research revealed that these programs were introduced at Texas A&M, Texas Southern University, Houston ISD, and many others.

Former Chinese President Hu Jintao even revealed that the programs were designed as a way to "increase our Communist Chinese Party influence around the world.”

Records we reviewed shows universities and public schools giving organs of the Chinese government control over curriculum and even personnel.

While many of these agreements have terminated in recent years, China's influence remains through alternate programs set up in different names.

Texas Scorecard’s research into the influence Communist China is attempting to have over Texas will continue with additional topics in the coming weeks.
