anniversary of the massacre in Tiananmen Square, Beijing, in the 
People's Republic of China, and for other purposes;

unauthorized, inappropriate, and coerced ordination of Catholic bishops 
by the People's Republic of China;

levels of religious persecution in the People's Republic of China;

of Congress regarding the activities of Islamist terrorist 
organizations in the Western Hemisphere, and
