"I strongly urge everyone to take note of new intelligence revealing the growing threat CCP hacking poses to the U.S. Volt Typhoon hackers aren't amateurs tinkering with computers. This is a sophisticated, systematic CCP effort to control critical U.S. systems -- like water, electrical, and transportation networks -- when they deem the time is right to sow chaos. We must work in a bipartisan manner to permanently shut down Volt Typhoon and safeguard critical infrastructure against CCP cyber warfare." – Congresswoman Ashley Hinson
