Beijing’s continued false narrative that the United States is a “black hand” in Hong Kong is false and damaging.
The people of Hong Kong have risen up against their Communist Chinese oppressors, and the U.S. is simply supporting their homegrown movement.

#HKSOS 🆘 —
“I.. can’t breathe..” boy suffocating.
@hkpoliceforce adding even more pressure on his kneel.
Arbitrary arrest, Physical assault, Sexual abuse are common among #HKpolice. We need help, desperately.

Unchecked #PoliceBrutality is a crime. Shot in her right eye and suffering from permanent sight loss, Indonesian journalist Veby Mega Indah told @StandNewsHK that she decided to sue #HKpolice for justice, not only for her, but for #Hongkongers. #PoliceState
I was proud to help the House pass the Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act tonight.
China must know that America will not turn a blind eye to their regime of oppression that is rampant with human rights abuses. They must be held accountable. I urge @POTUS to swiftly sign this bill.
General Secretary Xi and his communist regime continue to oppress Uyghurs – their own citizens – through torturous detention camps in hopes of eradicating the Islamic faith in China. Proud to join my colleagues tonight to condemn this horrific oppression.

Congress broke for Thanksgiving late last week. Thanks to the far left’s impeachment stunt, the House has been effectively shut down for weeks.
That isn’t stopping President @realDonaldTrump from working hard for the American people!

Much like Cold War Berlin, Hong Kong has become the epicenter of the struggle between totalitarianism & the free world. Last week's election was a major win for the good guys & goes to show that the Chinese people can overwhelmingly reject the CCP when it shows its true colors.
Very good to take some time@our from election observation to tell #JuniusHo in person that I was responsible for the revocation of his honorary doctorate from @AngliaRuskin#Sorrynotsorry
The Central folks met in the comfort of IFC today at lunch, still strong in numbers and spirit. Despite the situation at #PolyU, the movement certainly hasn’t fizzled out. If anything, my view is that the adults now want to do more for the youth protesters.
I’m gratified the #HongKongHumanRightsandDemocracyAct has been passed in both the Senate and the House, and that we came together with one voice to tell the people of #HongKong that the United States stands with them. https://t.co/rspTbKSGHg
@HouseForeignGOP@RepMcCaul It is an excited moment to hear this news. Thank you for hearing us and providing help for us. We’ll always remember this moment!
LR @RepMcCaul spoke directly to the ppl of Hong Kong from the House Floor today ahead of the passage of the #HongKongHumanRightsandDemocracyAct: "America stands w/ you & America will always support you. We hear you sing our national anthem. We see you carrying our American flag."
Hong Kong’s pro-Communist leaders will use any excuse to cancel democratic elections in #HongKong. A free and fair election would allow Hong Kongers to express their rising dissatisfaction with Beijing’s interference in local affairs.
#China is not respecting the ‘one country, two systems’ arrangement & they must be held accountable. I stand w/ the people of #HongKong & I’m proud to support the passage of the Hong Kong Human Rights & Democracy Act. This important bill will be sent to the WH & signed into law.
"Simon Cheng was a valued member of our team. We were shocked and appalled by the mistreatment he suffered while in Chinese detention, which amounts to torture."

We were in front of the Diet Members’ Office Building.

We will keep spreading what's happening in HK‼️
You are not alone‼️
