A Republican Senator is calling for a Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) review of the licensing agreement between Ford Motor Company and Chinese company Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Limited (CATL) that was signed earlier this week.

After Virginia abandoned its efforts to lure an investment by Ford to open a battery plant that would have licensed technology from Chinese company CATL, Michigan announced that it had reached an incentive agreement with Ford that would bring the factory there.

The Republican Governor of Virginia has blocked a potential investment by Ford Motor Co. and China’s Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Ltd (CATL) in a battery factory in Virginia. Michigan is still being considered as a location for this investment.
