@HongKongHermit 8 has died, 3 months of bloody bath, over 1200 arrested, over 7 million man-time in >20 marches, over 2460 teargas ,uncountable rubber bullets, bean bag shot, 3 live rounds.
Only 1 down, 4 to go.
We stand for #5DemandsNot1Less#universalsuffrage
We blame for #hkpolicebrutality
The CCP is displaying signs of an insecure, authoritarian regime that suppresses freedom, human rights, and political dissent—as evidenced by the arrest of citizens who were fleeing the regime. Thanks, @RepJohnCurtis, for nominating me to join the #save12HKyouth campaign.
And so it begins.
Beijing Secret Police are now arresting people under the nefarious "National Security Law".
Urgent response needed from @DominicRaab@UKinHongKong
The United States condemns the PRC proposal to impose national security legislation on Hong Kong and strongly urges Beijing to reconsider. We stand with the people of Hong Kong.
These are dangerous times. I have spoken in the Senate about the erosion of democratic freedoms in Hong Kong. As we approach another anniversary of the massacre In Tiananmen Square , I fear history may repeat itself. We must speak out .
The people of Hong Kong have shown immense courage in working to uphold the city’s democratic freedoms. Any erosion of “One Country, Two Systems” would be inconsistent with commitments made by China to the international community and to Hong Kong, as enshrined in the Basic Law.
TIME TO ACT!
This latest move by China is an affront to Hong Kong’s autonomy, rule of law and fudamental freedoms, as well as to international agreements. Political leaders from around the world must @Stand_with_HK
China is set to use it's fake Parliament to kill off what's left of democracy in #HongKong. The nail in the coffin of "one country, two systems." A reminder to the world that China views individual freedoms with contempt.

We cannot sit back and watch this violation of rights and freedoms in Hong Kong. Liberal Democrats are urging Dominic Raab to take decisive action. #StandwithHK
Stand with the people of Hong Kong👇

More evidence on #CCP’s horrible #HumanRights record & how they will go to extraordinary lengths to permanently silence critics. Glad to be the House sponsor of H.Res. 963, calling on the #IOC to rebid the 2022 Winter Olympics. https://t.co/mwOGq3CcuS
Reports that the #NPC will introduce legislation to further erode #HongKong’s autonomy are of grave concern to the U.S. The CCP is again breaking its promises. We stand resolute in our support of the Hong Kong people & their right to self-rule. https://t.co/wYu1EnspU2
The CCP’s campaign of brutal repression and censorship continues—now using the #COVID19 crisis as "cover" as it works to overturn Hong Kong's independence. I stand with the people of Hong Kong in the continued quest for freedom and autonomy. https://t.co/r22Duhjiij
Every tool in the economic and diplomatic tool box should be used to hold China accountable if they proceed down the path of destroying #HongKong as we know it.
