Christopher Coons: “Thank you for the opportunity to work together for another Congress and to do more for our small businesses nationwide.”

It was his suggestion that we tighten the use of the Magnitsky sanctions against corruption, and he was responsible for expanding the sanctions against corruption.

We need to provide more support for personnel, for operations, for outreach to support the Human Rights Defenders Fund.

When the U.S. leads other countries follow, and we see now, thanks to our efforts and thanks to Bill Browder's efforts, a dozen countries--two dozen countries have now passed Magnitsky type sanctions.

Thank you for your work together and with Chairman Cardin to promote democracy and free elections.
