      Rep. Jim McGovern Retweeted Kris Cheng

      1/ I am appalled and outraged by #HongKong police and their escalating violence and brutality towards peaceful protesters and journalists. I pray in particular for the young woman who was shot in her eye with a beanbag round at close range.https://twitter.com/krislc/status/1160777124896071680 …

      2/ The whole world is watching in real time. We know the truth and we will not be fooled by attempts to demonize these protesters. #HongKong authorities should not adopt mainland China’s tactics of suppression.

      3/ I call on #CarrieLam to immediately begin a dialogue with protest leaders to address their legitimate grievances including withdrawing the extradition bill, ending police violence & granting universal suffrage. The only way forward is peaceful dialogue – not more violence.

      4/ I also call on the Trump administration to stop sending mixed signals on #HongKong. Instead, they should suspend transfers of police & crowd control equipment to Hong Kong police. America must be on the side of those peacefully protesting for democracy and the rule of law.

          Equipment is not the point, we want Trump to liberate Hong Kong, restore freedom and end tyranny.

          Trump isn’t going to liberate anything, he’s rounding up people at work and taking other’s kids away at the border. We have oppression to deal with too, but more power to the people✊🏽of HK, we in the US should take notice and take actions if he wins the election.

          Thank you sir. We are experiencing the darkest hour of Hong Kong. The police keep violating their safety rule in using least lethal weapon in a lethal way in crowd control. Please suspend transfer these equipment to prevent such tragedy. Be with us. #FreeHongKong

          This is how an American leader should be reacting to these events. Thank you for speaking where our president does not.
