I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the ongoing genocide against the Uyghur people in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of China. The atrocities being committed include mass detentions, forced labor, systematic torture, forced sterilizations, and severe restrictions on religious and cultural practices. These actions constitute a grave violation of human rights and demand urgent international attention and action.
I applaud the recent introduction of the Uyghur Genocide Accountability and Sanctions Act (H.R. 2766) by the Uyghur Caucus Co-Chairs. This critical piece of legislation aims to hold Chinese government officials accountable for their actions against the Uyghur population and to implement sanctions on those responsible for these human rights abuses.
Supporting H.R. 2766 is a crucial step towards demonstrating our commitment to upholding human rights and international law. This bill would ensure that the United States takes a firm stance against the genocide, promoting accountability and providing a voice to the millions of Uyghurs who are suffering under this oppressive regime.
I urge you to support H.R. 2766 and advocate for its passage in Congress. It is imperative that the United States, as a global leader in human rights, takes decisive action to stop these atrocities. By endorsing this bill, you will be contributing to the global effort to end the suffering of the Uyghur people and to ensure that those responsible are held accountable for their crimes.
Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to your support in the fight against genocide and the defense of human rights.
