I reserve the balance of my time. Mr. McCAUL. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time. In closing, we can no longer deny the Chinese Communist Party is an enemy of democracy and a threat to international security and to freedom. Nowhere is that more clear than in Hong Kong. We cannot turn a blind eye to the CCP's brutal crackdown on freedom and democracy there. That is why I urge my colleagues to join me in supporting the Hong Kong People's Freedom and Choice Act. With this legislation, we have the opportunity to assist the freedom- loving people of Hong Kong and to remind the world the United States of America stands with anyone who stands for freedom. I thank my friends and colleagues, Congressmen Malinowski and Kinzinger and, most importantly, the chairman, Chairman Engel, for their hard work on this issue. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
