Human Rights Lawyer Emma Reilly reveals that the UN is actively sharing the names of Uyghur dissidents with the Chinese Government, telling Maajid Nawaz the actions of the UN here are 'criminal.' @MaajidNawaz
The UN Human Rights Council rejected the motion to debate the Uyghur genocide 17-19. Shame.
This is an astonishing piece by a very brave Uyghur writer:
The House passed 30+ bills yesterday. All but ONE were sent to the Senate for a vote. It’s the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act—which cracks down on goods made with Chinese slave labor. Why is Speaker Pelosi dragging her feet? What does the Chinese Communist Party have on her?
A hijab-wearing Muslim student was harassed by parents after her graduation speech. Huda's speech, which was approved by the school, expressed the importance of speaking up against injustices in Palestine and against Uyghur Muslims.
The Chinese government keeps talking about not wanting "outsiders 'meddling' in Myanmar’s internal affairs" -- meaning the junta can shoot protesters at will (and Beijing can detain Uyghur Muslims at will, crush Hong Kong's freedoms, etc). #AutocratsMantra
With my signature, the Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act, which imposes sanction on foreign individuals and entities responsible for human rights abuses in China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous region, goes to the White House.
China’s oppression of millions of Uyghurs is a gross violation of human rights. Today's passage of the Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act sends a message to the Communist Party: power cannot be maintained at the expense of the people without substantial consequences.
BREAKING: The House just passed my bill to hold China accountable for its human rights violations against over 1M Uyghur Muslims held in camps, subjected to “reeducation campaigns”, forced labor & total surveillance. China must take responsibility for these barbaric acts.
