The Honorable Merrick B. Garland

Attorney General

U.S. Department of Justice

950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW

Washington, DC 20530-0001

RE: Nationwide Faculty Members Support Stanford Colleagues’ Call to End the “China Initiative”

Dear Mr. Garland,

On September 8, 2021, 177 faculty members at Stanford University wrote an open letter to you and

expressed their concerns about the U.S. Department of Justice’s China Initiative. While acknowledging

the importance to the United States of protecting both intellectual property and information that is

essential to our national and economic security, these faculty members, including 8 Nobel laureates,

strongly urged you to terminate the China Initiative and replace it with an appropriate response that

avoids these fundamental flaws of the initiative:

• Disproportionally targeting researchers of Chinese origin,

• In most of the China Initiative cases involving academics, the alleged crime has nothing to do

with scientific espionage or intellectual property theft

• The China Initiative is harming the U.S. science and technology enterprise and the future of the

U.S. STEM workforce.

Fellow faculty members across the nation have responded with similar concerns and alarms that have

deepened with media reports of the rapidly unraveling initiative such as the acquittal of University of

Tennessee Professor Anming Hu and the extension of guilt by association to spouses at the Baylor School

of Medicine since September 8, 2021.

In addition, on October 5, 2021, the House Subcommittee on Investigations and Oversight & the House

Subcommittee Research and Technology held a hearing on “Balancing Open Science and Security in the

U.S. Research Enterprise.” It followed the first congressional proceeding on “Researching while Chinese

American: Ethnic Profiling, Chinese American Scientists and a New American Brain Drain” led by the

House Subcommittee on Civil Rights and Civil Liberties and the Congressional Asian Pacific American

Caucus on June 30, 2021. On October 21, 2021, Congressman Ted Lieu identified his specific concerns

to you about the “China Initiative” during a House Judiciary Committee hearing.

Since September 8, 214 University of California Berkeley faculty members, 167 Temple University

faculty members, and 198 Princeton University faculty members have endorsed the Stanford letter and

sent their letters to you.

2

While we are certain that many other members of the academic community must have written to you

separately, the present letter is co-signed by 841 faculty members, scholars, and administrators from 202

universities and educational institutions across all 50 states plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.

We are calling for you to terminate the “China Initiative.”

Sincerely Yours,

/s/ Steven Pei
