I am a original co-sponsor of his bill, the Hong Kong People's Freedom and Choice Act, which will protect Hong Kongers who are facing persecution.

The Chinese Government is not only violating the rights of Hong Kongers but also violating an international treaty, the Sino-British Joint Declaration.

The fight for democracy in Hong Kong is not just a fight for only Hong Kongers, it is a fight for self-determination, human rights, and the advancement of freedom around the world.

I want to take this opportunity to call on the rest of the world to consider extending those same invitations to Hong Kongers who are now being oppressed and repressed.

Mr. Speaker, for far too long, far too many people have lost their lives to police brutality. And for far too long, the government has failed to protect the people. That changes today. This is a first, yet significant step to save lives…

The Trump Administration has been woefully inadequate in setting standards, mandatory standards, that will save people's lives.

There have been, in the last count I saw, about 11,000 folks infected because of meat-packing plants. Many folks have died.

The State Department acknowledges that some of those Mexican cities are cities that the State Department has advised Americans not to travel to?

I guess, based on what we heard from folks the other day, it is quite the opposite...
