Last week marked 34 years since the Tiananmen Square massacre. Up to 10,000 people were killed by their own government. They were run over by tanks and shot in the streets--all for demanding freedom. The grotesque actions of the Chinese military have been remembered throughout history. Today, China continues to target, abuse, detain, and remove opposition. It is important for the United States to make a statement condemning the evil regime, the CCP. That is why I am introducing legislation that would rename the road outside the Chinese Embassy to the Tiananmen Square memorial boulevard. America needs to take a strong stand against the human rights violations of the Chinese Communist Party. Let us not forget the Americans who have died because of the CCP virus, the Americans and children who have died because of fentanyl flooding our streets because of the CCP, the incursion of the balloon in our airspace, and the recent advances toward a naval destroyer and our military. Mr. Speaker, it is time we stand and say no to the CCP. ____________________

Mr. Chair, this amendment simply inserts or adds a clarifying clause. While religious student groups are free to select people who aren't members of their religion to lead them, most people agree that it is reasonable for a Muslim student…
