Benjamin L. Cardin: “Your responsibilities in air quality have a major impact on our efforts and our commitments in regards to the Chesapeake…”

I thank Senator Cardin for his leadership in championing the Global Magnitsky Act.

Nowhere has this been more on display than what has occurred in Hong Kong in recent years as the passage of the National Security Law and entry into force of Article 23 destroyed what remains of Hong Kong's democracy.

I appreciate that, and I support everything you just said...

I introduced the Sergei Magnitsky Rule of Law Accountability Act as a way of saying that we will hold abusers accountable even if their own country does not.
