Jul 22, 2026

In a July 15, 2026 House Administration subcommittee hearing on election observation, Rep.

Rep. Julie Johnson criticizes Trump administration Smithsonian reviews and DEI orders

Jul 22, 2026

The video shows Rep. Julie Johnson delivering remarks during a congressional committee hearing on the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History.

Johnson references specific actions starting January 2025, Texas alignment, White House exhibit reviews, and panelist testimony from witnesses including Mr. Gonzales and Ms. Hardiman. She emphasizes the need for institutional independence and honest reckoning with all aspects of American history.

Rep. Johnson questions BIS on China EV exemption, entity list gaps in AI race

Jul 14, 2026

In a July 2026 House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing, Rep. Julie Johnson (D-TX) questioned Under Secretary of Commerce for Industry and Security Jeffrey Kessler on the Bureau of Industry and Security's enforcement of export controls. Johnson promoted her Bipartisan Whistleblowers Aiding National Security Act, noted whistleblower tips drive many BIS cases, and raised bipartisan concerns about insufficient updates to the entity list amid Chinese and Russian companies renaming or morphing entities, particularly in the AI technology race. She then focused on an exemption granted to at least one China-connected automaker under the connected vehicle rule, linking it to China's subsequent July 2026 standards requiring continuous monitoring, data recording, and remote management in new vehicles with intelligent systems.
