CHINESE GENOCIDE OF UYGHUR MUSLIMS
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, the Chinese Communist
Party is committing genocide against the Uyghur Muslim population.
Four years ago, I was grateful to join with Congressman Jim Banks,
now Senator, as the first Members of Congress to declare Chinese
Communist Party crimes against the Uyghur population as genocide. Only
a week later, President Trump carefully declared these crimes a
genocide.
The Chinese Communist Party is eliminating the Uyghur population
through slave labor, forced sterilization, and mass detention.
Today, Uyghur retired doctor Gulshan Abbas will spend her 63rd
birthday unjustly imprisoned by the Chinese Communist Party in
retaliation for her family's courageous advocacy in America. It is
important that Radio Free Asia Uyghur Service be able to confirm that
Congress stands for the immediate release of Dr. Abbas.
In conclusion, God bless our troops as the global war on terrorism
continues. Trump is reinstituting existing laws to protect American
families with peace through strength, revealing war criminal Putin
lies, insulting Trump, mocking Trump with murderous drone attacks
intended for hospitals in Ukraine.
