thank you for your support with us in this difficult journey and battle.

Congressman Chris Smith, yourself, and Congressman Frank Wolf, thank you for all of your effort in the past 30-plus years fighting against both the one-child policy and also defending the victims of the Tiananmen massacre.

The Chinese Government not only continues to inflict unspeakable pain and suffering on its own people, but the cover-up of the Tiananmen Square massacre is without precedent in modern history.

Many of us on both sides of the aisle and Americans throughout this country and really people who believe in freedom around the world will never forget what took place in Tiananmen 24 years ago.

It is hard to believe that it is some 24 years ago that we are now looking back at Tiananmen Square.

An oppressed people will eventually rise up, and they should.

Twenty-four years ago today, the world watched in awe and wonder as hundreds of thousands of mostly young people peacefully petitioned the Chinese Government to reform and to democratize.

Not a single person lost his life in Tiananmen Square.

we need to have a more muscular human rights policy.

It is incredibly important to finally push back hard and clearly.

You know, I would say to Dr. Aikman, I know you were talking about a very swift transfer of power.

It seems to me that at the very least, our side, our President needs to make a very strong and aggressive--diplomatic, but aggressive appeal for these people who are suffering with such impunity.

It is very hard to know that.

President Obama should raise the cases in the meeting.

when American officials... speak precisely, transparently, but boldly about human rights, they beat us less.

The Tiananmen Mothers and the meetings of victims of the Chinese dictatorship rightfully ask the United States to strongly oppose in a vote against the China regaining membership in the U.N. Human Rights Council.

To reverse the anti-revolutionary turmoil 'dong luan' verdict against Tiananmen Square's peaceful protesters, to end the one-child policy in China, to end gendercide in China and in America, to end abortions in China and in America, to end the imprisonment of political dissidents Liu Xiaobo, Bao Tong, Tan Zuoren, and others, and to end the persecutions of churches and believers in China and in America.

the Secretary of the Navy will submit, along with the Secretary of the Air Force, a report to Congress declaring IOC dates for all three variants of the Joint Strike Fighter by June 1, 2013.
