Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume for the purpose of closing. Madam Speaker, the Chinese Communist Party persecutes religious believers who will not submit their religious convictions to CCP control. It reacts with brutality against any attempted religious practice outside of the five religious patriotic associations allowed and controlled by the regime. This bill tells the truth about the dangers faced by Christians, Uyghur Muslims, Tibetan Buddhists, and other religious minorities in China and takes steps to sanction their CCP persecutors. I am an enthusiastic cosponsor of this bill by my colleague from Missouri, and I urge its unanimous passage. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
