What I am interested in hearing from you this morning is how can we help provide a standard.
Mark Meadows
The Public Record
Mark Meadows is a former U.S. Representative for North Carolina's 11th congressional district, serving from 2013 to 2020. A member of the Republican Party, he was a prominent figure in the House Freedom Caucus, advocating for limited government and fiscal conservatism. During his tenure, he was known for his strong support of the Trump administration's policies and initiatives.
The paradigm has shifted from the old era in which diplomacy was based on the lesser of two evils.
I guess my question becomes, as I mentioned earlier, we have had a number of hearings where this is a reoccurring theme, where we have human rights abuses that continue to happen in China.
I want to thank each one of you and just say as a father, speaking on behalf of your fathers, I am proud of you.
My commitment to each one of you is that as discussions go on with those in official positions in China, that not a single one of those conversations or negotiations will happen with my staff or me without the faces of each one of you…
I believe in sovereignty. It is one of those things that is foundational to our American way of democracy.
How can we communicate most effectively a desire to address the human rights issues, but at the same time a love for the Chinese people?
