Senate introduces bill to ban all Chinese nationals from purchasing land in US

In the next wave of Sinophobic fear-mongering, a bill introduced by Tom Cotton and others proposes a blanket ban on all Chinese from being able to purchase property in the US. I full expect this to be eventually signed into law given the continuing hysteria regarding all things China in this country.

Before anyone claims this does not affect Chinese-Americans, please don’t forget many of us have family members or friends who are not naturalized. Additionally this further cements the atmosphere of anti-Chinese sentiment in this country, which affects all of us.
