#OTD one year ago, India made the unfortunate decision to revoke #Article370 and robbed the Kashmiri people of their self-governance and basic civil liberties. I condemned the decision then and now, in the midst of the global #COVID19 pandemic, I am reaffirming that condemnation.

Under the intensified lockdown in Kashmir pursued as a result of #COVID19, the continued detention of political prisoners and civilians, including children and the ailing, is all the more egregious and must be stopped.

I previously intro’d #HRes724 to condemn the inhumane abuses in #Jammu & #Kashmir. To our Kashmiri neighbors here & around the world, know that silence is not an option & I will continue to pursue avenues of peace & justice for you & your loved ones. https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-resolution/724">https://www.congress.gov/bill/116t...
