The House Foreign Affairs Committee has just passed the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office Certification Act by a unanimous vote of 39 to 0. A big victory. The HKETO bill has both bipartisan and bicameral support. It will now go to the House Rules Committee.

The Call4HK team appreciates the introduction of the Hong Kong Sanctions Act. We remain committed as a platform to amplify the voices of HongKonger advocacy groups, and will support this effort from the beginning to the end.
6/ The bill was co-sponsored by @RepYoungKim, @RepMcGovern, @RepJohnCurtis, @SenDanSullivan, and @SenJeffMerkley--huge thanks to them for their support of Hongkongers. On the advocacy side, a coalition of HK groups were involved but the effort was brilliantly led by @thecfhk.

US bankers David Solomon of @GoldmanSachs & James Gorman of @MorganStanley appeared alongside US-sanctioned John Lee at #HongKong gov't finance summit. We urge Congress to ask them what they were doing endorsing #repression & rights abuses while flouting US foreign policy.

@StandNewsHK is the largest pro-democracy media remaining after the fall of Apple Daily. Its reports reveal the government’s corrupted behaviors and the agency is thus considered subversive by the authority. Beijing seeks to control the flow of information among the public.

I am very honored to announce that I am invited by @POTUS to deliver a remark in The Summit for Democracy on 10th Dec.
The remark serves as a bridge between sessions on "protecting human rights" and "defending against authoritarianism." The voice of Hong Kong will be heard.

[Breaking] Statement by President Joe Biden on Apple Daily
Thank you President Joe Biden for speaking up for HongKong.
The exact scene of HK police hurting Hongkongers on #831 was recreated by kids, on what they called a "National Security Day" in #HongKong. They made kids have fun and play in a very similar setting to the terrible event. #831 #PrinceEdward
Horrifying.
Keep住團火 🔥
“Don’t let #HongKong fall.”
Stand With Us. #Call4HK today.
