Eliot Engel: “The law is a brutal, sweeping crackdown against the people of Hong Kong, intended to destroy the freedoms they were…”

I think that is scandalous and I think it, frankly, undermines whatever policy we are pursuing in Syria.

This legislation, passed into law last December, mandates the most sweeping sanctions on Assad's enablers.

I particularly want to thank Chairman Engel for his leadership, as well as the whole committee, for making the Caesar Act a reality.

We will continue to call out and hold accountable those who undermine the Dayton Peace Agreement or threaten the country's sovereignty, territorial integrity, and multi-ethnic character.
