Washington DC -<\/span><\/b> <\/span>Senadores estadounidenses Marco <\/span>rubio<\/span> <\/span>(R-FL) y Bob Men\u00e9ndez (D-NJ) se unieron a los senadores Todd Young (R-IN), Ben Cardin (D-MD) y Jeff Merkley (D-OR) para presentar la <\/span><\/span><\/span>Ley de puerto seguro de Hong Kong<\/span><\/i><\/a>. Esta legislaci\u00f3n bipartidista permitir\u00eda a aquellos hongkoneses que protestaron pac\u00edficamente contra el corrupto sistema de justicia de Beijing y que tienen un temor fundado de persecuci\u00f3n ser elegibles para el estatus de Refugiado de Prioridad 2. El proyecto de ley tambi\u00e9n es una respuesta a las acciones de la Rep\u00fablica Popular China (RPC) para implementar su <\/span>Ley de la Rep\u00fablica Popular China sobre salvaguardia de la seguridad nacional en la Regi\u00f3n Administrativa Especial de Hong Kong<\/i>. Muchos hongkoneses ya viven actualmente fuera del territorio por temor a ser arrestados y reprimidos tras su participaci\u00f3n en las protestas a favor de la democracia del a\u00f1o pasado.<\/span><\/p>\n

 El <\/span>Ley de puerto seguro de Hong Kong <\/span><\/i>har\u00eda: <\/span><\/p>\n

(1)  <\/span>Otorgar a los hongkoneses estatus de refugiado con prioridad 2<\/i>: Los habitantes de Hong Kong que participaron pac\u00edficamente en el movimiento de protesta y tienen un temor fundado de persecuci\u00f3n ser\u00e1n elegibles para el procesamiento de Refugiado de Prioridad 2 en Hong Kong o en un tercer pa\u00eds. Los refugiados de Hong Kong no estar\u00e1n sujetos a la limitaci\u00f3n num\u00e9rica.<\/span><\/p>\n

(2)  <\/span>Renunciar a la intenci\u00f3n de inmigraci\u00f3n como factor de no<\/i>–Visas de Inmigrante<\/i>: Para aquellos hongkoneses que hayan sido arrestados por delitos relacionados con las protestas o hayan desempe\u00f1ado un papel humanitario u organizador en las protestas, la intenci\u00f3n de inmigrar no se considerar\u00e1 como un factor para que las visas de no inmigrantes faciliten el camino para una solicitud de asilo. . <\/span><\/p>\n

(3)  <\/span>Trate la revocaci\u00f3n de la residencia en Hong Kong como represalia por solicitar el estatus de refugiado o una visa estadounidense como persecuci\u00f3n pol\u00edtica<\/i>: Si Beijing revoca la residencia de los hongkoneses que solicitan el estatus de refugiado o una visa estadounidense, entonces esas personas seguir\u00e1n siendo elegibles para el estatus de refugiado como v\u00edctimas de persecuci\u00f3n pol\u00edtica.<\/span><\/p>\n

(4) <\/span>Cl\u00e1usula de extinci\u00f3n<\/i>: El proyecto de ley dejar\u00e1 de surtir efectos cinco a\u00f1os despu\u00e9s de su promulgaci\u00f3n.   <\/span><\/p>\n

Representantes estadounidenses John Curtis (R-UT), Joaqu\u00edn Castro (D-TX), Mike Gallagher (R-WI), Brad Sherman (D-CA), Harley Rouda (D-CA), Ted Yoho (R-FL), Tom Suozzi (D-NY), Elise Stefanik (R-NY), Ben McAdams (D-UT), Chris Stewart (R-UT), Jim McGovern (D-MA), Vicky Hartler (R-MO) y Tom Malinowski (dem\u00f3crata por Nueva Jersey)<\/span> <\/span>introdujo legislaci\u00f3n complementaria en la C\u00e1mara.<\/span><\/p>\n

Las citas de todos los representantes de los EE. UU. y los respaldos a este proyecto de ley bipartidista son <\/span><\/span>aqu\u00ed<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cEl mundo fue testigo del coraje de los activistas pro democracia de Hong Kong, que el a\u00f1o pasado salieron a las calles para defender su autonom\u00eda del control autoritario de China\u201d.Senador<\/b> <\/span>rubio<\/span> <\/span>dicho<\/span><\/b>. \u201cTras la implementaci\u00f3n anoche de la Ley de Seguridad Nacional de Beijing, Estados Unidos debe ayudar a los hongkoneses a preservar su sociedad en casa y encontrar refugio para aquellos que enfrentan persecuci\u00f3n por ejercer los derechos que una vez fueron garantizados bajo la Declaraci\u00f3n Conjunta. A trav\u00e9s de <\/span>Ley de Puerto Seguro de Hong Kong,<\/i> <\/span>nuestra naci\u00f3n ofrecer\u00eda un refugio seguro a muchos hongkoneses que han luchado incansablemente contra la tiran\u00eda\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMientras el pueblo de Hong Kong contin\u00faa enfrentando el control cada vez m\u00e1s estricto de Beijing sobre su autonom\u00eda, libertades y derechos humanos b\u00e1sicos, Estados Unidos debe mantener su antorcha en alto y orgulloso por los cansados, los pobres y las masas api\u00f1adas que anhelan respirar libres\u201d. <\/span>El miembro de mayor rango Men\u00e9ndez dijo<\/b>. \u201cEstamos presentando esta legislaci\u00f3n bipartidista para reiterar al Partido Comunista Chino que apoyamos resueltamente a Hong Kong y sus residentes, y nos aseguraremos de que no caigan en las grietas de nuestro fallido sistema de inmigraci\u00f3n solo porque se vieron obligados a huir por defender sus derechos\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

"A principios de este mes, envi\u00e9 una carta al secretario de Estado de Estados Unidos, Mike Pompeo, alentando a Estados Unidos a trabajar con el Reino Unido y Australia para dar la bienvenida a los hongkoneses que buscan refugio de la represi\u00f3n autoritaria del Partido Comunista Chino". <\/span>El senador Young dijo<\/b>. \u201cEstoy orgulloso de dar el siguiente paso al presentar el acuerdo bipartidista <\/span>Ley de puerto seguro de Hong Kong<\/i>.\u201d<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

"La aprobaci\u00f3n oficial de la Legislaci\u00f3n de Seguridad Nacional por parte de China representa la amenaza m\u00e1s nueva y m\u00e1s grave a la libertad de expresi\u00f3n del pueblo de Hong Kong", <\/span>El senador Cardin dijo<\/b>. "A trav\u00e9s de <\/span>Ley de puerto seguro de Hong Kong<\/i>, dejamos claro que donde Beijing ve "amenazas a la seguridad nacional", Estados Unidos ve ataques innecesarios a manifestaciones pac\u00edficas y al ejercicio de la libertad de expresi\u00f3n. Esta legislaci\u00f3n bipartidista demuestra inequ\u00edvocamente que Estados Unidos no abandonar\u00e1 a quienes defienden sus derechos civiles\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cDespu\u00e9s de una serie de medidas en\u00e9rgicas alarmantes y brutales por parte de China contra los derechos de los defensores de la democracia, el partido bipartidista <\/span>Ley de puerto seguro de Hong Kong<\/i> <\/span>ayudar\u00eda a proporcionar a aquellos que han sido perseguidos o temen ser perseguidos en Hong Kong un camino hacia la seguridad en Estados Unidos\u201d, <\/span>El senador Merkley dijo<\/b>. \u201cNo podemos permanecer en silencio ante ataques flagrantes a las libertades que todos apreciamos y merecemos, y ciertamente no podemos cerrarles la puerta en la cara a los hongkoneses que buscan refugio. Nuestros fundadores esperaban que este pa\u00eds fuera un faro de esperanza para los oprimidos de todo el mundo, y este proyecto de ley est\u00e1 en consonancia con esa visi\u00f3n\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
