As chair of the House Foreign Relations Committee, Meeks re3peatedly blocked efforts to sanction entities linked to [[United Front Work Department]] (UFWD) of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). In September 2021 Meeks killed an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act which would have required the [[Secretary of State]] to report to Congress on whether the UFWD can be sanctioned under existing laws that allow the [[executive branch]] to punish entities involved in [[PRC]]'s assault on [[democracy]] in [[Hong Kong]], the [[Uyghur genocide]] in [[Xinjiang]] province, its cyber-attacks against western government and industrial targets, and its transnational criminal activities.<ref>https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/09/top-dem-blocked-push-to-punish-chinese-disinformation-efforts/</ref>
