Benjamin L. Cardin: “Congress needs to enact the New Markets Tax Credit Extension Act of 2023 (S. 234), which was introduced by Senators…”

Freedom House is pleased to support the Human Rights Defenders Protection Act, led by Chairman Cardin.

Thank you very much for holding this hearing on the implementation of Global Magnitsky sanctions.

Why do we not widen this piece of legislation out so it includes all human rights abusers in Russia?
