[End of our Last Free Election, Beginning of our Real Struggle for Liberty]
1/ With the support of freedom-loving Hongkongers, my team members and district councillor @JannelleRLeung, it is my honour to top the poll in my district with more than 30043 votes.

6/ Despite the gloomy future ahead, the pro-democracy primary has proved the grit and courage of Hongkongers under Beijing’s sweeping powers. With our votes cast, Hongkongers have sent a clear message to the world - We will never surrender to tyranny!

@joshuawongcf
7/ With the popular mandate obtained in this primary, I will continue to bring Hongkongers’ voices to the world and oppose the regime’s crackdowns on civil society. It may be the last free election for Hongkongers, but it marks our real struggle for freedoms in the city.

Big (and unfortunate) news: @nytimes will relocate part of its Asian operation from Hong Kong to Seoul. The new NSL's threat to press freedom and our city's reputation as a vibrant hub of international journalism is immediately felt. nytimes.com/2020/07/14/bus…

Good to see @realDonaldTrump signing the Hong Kong Autonomy Act into law today. Given Beijing's ongoing crackdown on Hong Kong, this bipartisan legislation offers the administration new tools to respond. Moving forward, I urge the Congress to adopt the Hong Kong Safe Harbor Act. twitter.com/SenToomey/stat…

Concurrently, the president also enacted through an executive order a series of necessary measures: the termination of the U.S.-Hong Kong extradition treaty, the allocation of quotas for political refugees, as well as various import and export controls. twitter.com/hkdc_us/status…

2. Since the high primary turnout demonstrates #Hongkongers’ determination for democracy and captures the world’s attention, Joshua Wong urged #China to think twice and holds itself from further imperiling the city’s autonomy and democracy with the new sweeping #NSL.

Great to be able to tweet again. Picking up from where I left off earlier: I urge our American friends who support #HongKong to call your Representatives and Senators in Congress to back the #HKSHA. We did it with the landmark #HKHRDA last year. Let's do it again now. twitter.com/joshuawongcf/s…

[Is NBA sacrificing our free speech and kowtowing to #China again?]
1. Immediately after blocking #FreeHongKong to be printed on its custom gear, #NBA just once again kowtowed to #China by pulling the whole custom gear section from its store.

3. Just another controversial incident after Daryl Morey’s tweet supporting #Hongkongprotests last year, the #Freehongkong uproar is sounding alarm bells about NBA’s dedication to stand up against #Beijing’s political pressure and uphold the liberal values that we all embrace.

Supporting #HongKong is a bipartisan consensus in DC; neither party alone "owns" this issue, and neither is an "obstacle." Based on my experience, the trouble comes invariably from the business community who favors stronger ties to Beijing and thus access to the Chinese market. twitter.com/hkdc_us/status…

I'm saddened to learn of the death of the civil-rights hero and Congressman John Lewis. He was a tireless champion of a more equal America, a more equal world, through his activism and public service, which have inspired so many of us. I'll never forget his support for #HongKong. twitter.com/RepTomSuozzi/s…
