Takes a particular sort of scum to brutalise a pregnant woman.
Since July last 2019, the @hkpoliceforce have shown again and again that pregnancy is no defence against their disproportionate brutalising of democracy campaigners.
Really hope she is ok.
As we’ve seen, the President cannot be trusted to hold China accountable for its brutal crackdown on #HongKong. I’m on the floor again asking that the Senate pass the bipartisan Hong Kong Autonomy Act. https://t.co/1T0thx7ew2
Can it be 31 years ! Waking up on June 1 & my thoughts turn to Tiananmen ,1989 . I was a witness to the massacre in and around Tiananmen Square. I see the youthful faces of hope. I think of their families who have never been allowed to grieve . Today I have new fears. #HongKong
It starts; so soon. For the first time in 30 years, Hong Kong authorities denied permission to hold the #TiananmenVigil. If there is any doubt about Beijing’s intent, it is to deny Hong Kongers a voice and a choice, making them the same as mainlanders. So much for two systems.
China's Communist Party is preparing a law that would ban secession, subversion of state power, foreign interference, & terrorism, as defined by the government. I condemn the end of "one party, two systems" as guaranteed under the 50-year agreement by China & the United Kingdom.
I am filing now my resolution w/ multiple cosponsors condemning #China’s attempt to violate its treaty commitments and strip #HongKong of its liberties
@realDonaldTrump Is it fair to call it the Chinese Virus? (Please help by retweeting and following before voting!) https://t.co/jkAtzpdaoX https://t.co/KkOgUGS9sN https://t.co/hY5mjisqYv #Ad
My friend Jimmy Lai, along with former lawmakers, were arrested this AM in HK for participating in peaceful protests. This is shameful.
They should be honored for their commitment to fighting for basic rights for Hong Kongers. Carrie Lam should consider her next moves carefully.
On January 12, Hong Kong authorities denied Kenneth Roth, executive director of Human Rights Watch, entry to Hong Kong, where he had planned to launch the organization’s World Report 2020.

We will keep fighting for a new day of freedom and human rights for the people of HK!

A tourist from #Melbourne was shot twice on his legs by the hk police from his back on the footbridge connecting IFC and the pier. He said he was just passing by and didn’t know anything about the #standwithUyghurrally in Edinburgh square #HKPF#hkprotest
Great meeting with @GordonGChang today to discuss how we can further hold Communist China accountable for their human rights violations and continue promoting freedom and democracy in #HongKong and around the globe.
