Since the Chinese government implemented the National Security Law in 2020, it has destroyed Hong Kong’s freedom and democracy. For this reason, the US House of Representatives passed the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office Accreditation Act with 413 votes to 3. The Hong Kong Office in the United States may face closure.
The bill stipulates that the US Secretary of State will review Hong Kong’s three offices in Washington, New York and San Francisco to consider whether they should continue to enjoy special treatment. If it is determined that Hong Kong no longer enjoys a high degree of autonomy, the president has the right to close these offices within 180 days.
