The people of #HongKong deserve a future that sees their rights respected. It is critical that the President quickly enact this legislation in the face of Beijing's crackdown. Many thanks to @RepMcGovern & @RepChrisSmith for leading the bipartisan effort to pass this legislation.
President Xi:
The Hong Kong Freedom and Democracy Act represents what America really thinks about your polices towards Hong Kong
Not what President Trump says or fails to say
This legislation shows what America thinks about the Chinese Communist party’s treatment of Hong Kong
To the people of China, we stand with you.
To the students and young people in Hong Kong, we stand with you.
To the Uyghurs who simply want to practice their religion, we stand with you.
History is not kind to those who peddle in autocracy and suppression.
Hong Kong’s autonomy is under attack.
Recent bipartisan passage of the Hong Kong Human Rights & Democracy Act sends a clear statement that Congress stands with #HongKongers committed to preserving the independence that's made #HongKong the prosperous city it is today.
#China demands Trump veto bills about #HongKong that passed by overwhelming veto proof majorities. No surprise the Communist Party doesn’t understand how democracy works. #StandWithHongKong

Yesterday I voted FOR the #HongKong Human Rights and Democracy Act. Beijing should not stand in the way of their quest for freedom and basic human rights.
I'm proud that this Congress stood up in a bipartisan way to #StandWithHongKong.
Proud to sign the enrollment of the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act, which I cosponsored. This sends a message that Congress stands with the people of Hong Kong. https://t.co/ApM9YIsZSn
Communist China — the United States is proud to stand for Democracy, a word you may not have heard.
Congress has passed my PROTECT Act and the #HongKongHumanRightsandDemocracyAct to hold China accountable for its grotesque behavior and human rights violations. #StandwithHK
Using brute force, China is imposing political pressure, surveillance, and total control upon the people of Hong Kong. The United States does not condone and will not allow China to continue this behavior.
