1 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa2 tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, 

3 SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE; TABLE OF CONTENTS. 

4 (a) SHORT TITLE.—This Act may be cited as the 

5 ‘‘Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act of 2020’’. 

6 (b) TABLE OF CONTENTS.—The table of contents for 

7 this Act is as follows: 

Sec. 1. Short title; table of contents. 

Sec. 2. Statement of purpose. 

Sec. 3. Findings. 

Sec. 4. Sense of Congress.

Sec. 10. Classified report. 

8 SEC. 2. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE. 

9 The purpose of this Act is to direct United States 

10 resources to address human rights violations and abuses, 

11 including gross violations of human rights, by the Govern12 ment of the People’s Republic of China through the mass 

13 surveillance and internment of over 1,000,000 Uyghurs, 

14 ethnic Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, and members of other Muslim 

15 minority groups in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. 

16 SEC. 3. FINDINGS. 

17 Congress makes the following findings:

•S 3744 CPS

1 (1) The Government of the People’s Republic of 

2 China has a long history of repressing Turkic Mus3 lims and other Muslim minority groups, particularly 

4 Uyghurs, in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. 

5 In recent decades, central and regional Chinese gov6 ernment policies have systematically discriminated 

7 against these minority groups by denying them a 

8 range of civil and political rights, including the free9 dom of expression, religion, and movement, and the 

10 right to a fair trial. 

11 (2) In May 2014, the Government of the Peo12 ple’s Republic of China launched its latest ‘‘Strike 

13 Hard Against Violent Extremism’’ campaign, using 

14 wide-scale, internationally-linked threats of terrorism 

15 as a pretext to justify pervasive restrictions on and 

16 serious human rights violations of members of ethnic 

17 minority communities in Xinjiang Uyghur Autono18 mous Region. The August 2016 appointment of 

19 former Tibet Autonomous Region Party Secretary 

20 Chen Quanguo to be Party Secretary of Xinjiang 

21 Uyghur Autonomous Region accelerated the crack22 down across the region. Scholars, human rights or23 ganizations, journalists, and think tanks have pro24 vided ample evidence substantiating the establish25 ment by the Government of the People’s Republic of

1 China of internment camps. Since 2014, the Govern2 ment of the People’s Republic of China has detained 

3 more than 1,000,000 Uyghurs, ethnic Kazakhs, 

4 Kyrgyz, and members of other Muslim minority 

5 groups in these camps. The total ethnic minority 

6 population of Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region 

7 was approximately 13,000,000 at the time of the 

8 last census conducted by the People’s Republic of 

9 China in 2010. 

10 (3) The Government of the People’s Republic of 

11 China’s actions against Uyghurs, ethnic Kazakhs, 

12 Kyrgyz, and members of other Muslim minority 

13 groups in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region vio14 late international human rights laws and norms, in15 cluding— 

16 (A) the International Convention on the 

17 Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimina18 tion, to which the People’s Republic of China 

19 has acceded; 

20 (B) the Convention against Torture and 

21 Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment 

22 or Punishment, which the People’s Republic of 

23 China has signed and ratified;

1 (C) the International Covenant on Civil 

2 and Political Rights, which the People’s Repub3 lic of China has signed; and 

4 (D) the Universal Declaration of Human 

5 Rights. 

6 (4) Senior Chinese Communist Party officials, 

7 including current Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Re8 gion Party Secretary Chen Quanguo, who executes 

9 Chinese government policy in the region, and former 

10 Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region Deputy Party 

11 Secretary Zhu Hailun, who crafted many of the poli12 cies implemented in the region, bear direct responsi13 bility for gross human rights violations committed 

14 against Uyghurs, ethnic Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, and mem15 bers of other Muslim minority groups. These abuses 

16 include the arbitrary detention of more than 

17 1,000,000 Uyghurs, ethnic Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, and 

18 members of other Muslim minority groups, separa19 tion of working age adults from children and the el20 derly, and the integration of forced labor into supply 

21 chains.

1 guistic freedoms. These victims have confirmed that 

2 they were told by guards that the only way to secure 

3 their release was to demonstrate sufficient political 

4 loyalty. Poor conditions and lack of medical treat5 ment at such facilities appear to have contributed to 

6 the deaths of some detainees, including the elderly 

7 and infirm. 

8 (6) Uyghurs and ethnic Kazakhs who have ob9 tained permanent residence or citizenship in other 

10 countries report being subjected to threats and har11 assment from Chinese officials. At least 5 journalists 

12 for Radio Free Asia’s Uyghur service have publicly 

13 detailed abuses their family members in Xinjiang 

14 Uyghur Autonomous Region have endured in re15 sponse to their work exposing the Government of the 

16 People’s Republic of China’s abusive policies. 

17 (7) In September 2018, United Nations High 

18 Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet 

19 noted in her first speech as High Commissioner the 

20 ‘‘deeply disturbing allegations of large-scale arbi21 trary detentions of Uighurs and other Muslim com22 munities, in so-called reeducation camps across 

23 Xinjiang’’. 

24 (8) In 2019, the Congressional-Executive Com25 mission on China concluded that, based on available

•S 3744 CPS

1 evidence, the establishment and actions committed in 

2 the internment camps in Xinjiang Uyghur Autono3 mous Region may constitute ‘‘crimes against human4 ity’’. 

5 (9) On December 31, 2018, President Donald 

6 J. Trump signed into law the Asia Reassurance Ini7 tiative Act of 2018 (Public Law 115–409), which— 

8 (A) condemns the People’s Republic of 

9 China’s ‘‘forced disappearances, extralegal de10 tentions, invasive and omnipresent surveillance, 

11 and lack of due process in judicial pro12 ceedings’’; 

13 (B) authorizes funding to promote democ14 racy, human rights, and the rule of law in the 

15 People’s Republic of China; and 

16 (C) supports sanctions designations 

17 against any entity or individual that— 

18 (i) violates human rights or religious 

19 freedoms; or 

20 (ii) engages in censorship activities. 

21 SEC. 4. SENSE OF CONGRESS. 

22 It is the sense of Congress that— 

23 (1) the President should— 

24 (A) condemn abuses against Uyghurs, eth25 nic Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, members of other Muslim

6 (ii) lift all restrictions on, and ensure 

7 respect for, human rights; and 

8 (iii) allow people inside the People’s 

9 Republic of China to reestablish contact 

10 with their loved ones, friends, and associ11 ates outside the People’s Republic of 

12 China; 

13 (2) the Secretary of State should consider stra14 tegically employing sanctions and other tools under 

15 the International Religious Freedom Act of 1998 

16 (22 U.S.C. 6401 et seq.), including measures result17 ing from the designation of the People’s Republic of 

18 China as a country of particular concern for reli19 gious freedom under section 402(b)(1)(A)(ii) of such 

20 Act (22 U.S.C. 6442(b)(1)(A)(ii)), that directly ad21 dress particularly severe violations of religious free22 dom; 

23 (3) the Secretary of State should—

5 (B) coordinate closely with the inter6 national community on targeted sanctions and 

7 visa restrictions; 

8 (4) the journalists of the Uyghur language serv9 ice of Radio Free Asia should be commended for 

10 their reporting on the human rights and political sit11 uation in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region de12 spite efforts by the Government of the People’s Re13 public of China to silence or intimidate their report14 ing through the detention of family members and

22 should take steps to hold accountable officials from

24 on their behalf who harass, threaten, or intimidate 

25 persons within the United States; and

4 steps, including in any public or financial filings, to 

5 ensure that— 

6 (A) their commercial activities are not con7 tributing to human rights violations in Xinjiang
