I want to again thank the ranking member. I thank the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Yoho) for joining with me to introduce this measure condemning Beijing's violations of international law and attacks on Hong Kong's democratic freedoms. It is really important that we speak with one voice--both Democrats and Republicans--to let Beijing know that we are not just going to close our eyes to what they are doing to the people of Hong Kong. Mr. Speaker, I urge all my colleagues to support this very important resolution, and I yield back the balance of my time.
