This bill tells the President to review whether certain Hong Kong officials and judges should face U.S. sanctions and to send Congress a report explaining the decision. The review must happen within 180 days after the bill becomes law. It applies to people already sanctioned in 2020, like the Chief Executive John Lee, and adds many other officials, judges, and prosecutors. The review uses existing U.S. laws and orders, including the Global Magnitsky Act and an order that blocks the property of people involved in serious human rights abuse or corruption.
Key points:
Referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and in addition to the Committee on the Judiciary, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
