Important discussion with Sebastien Lai. Jimmy Lai, his father, remains unjustly imprisoned by the Chinese Communist Party. He has been a powerful voice for basic freedoms and human rights. His sentence is for 20 years, which is effectively a life sentence.
It is imperative that we secure Jimmy’s release, and that the United States signals our commitment to securing it. Earlier this year, I drafted and secured unanimous Senate passage of a bipartisan resolution calling for his release and the release of other political prisoners held by the CCP.
President Xi will be in Washington next week. He should release Jimmy.
Until that happens, I will not stop fighting for his freedom and for holding the CCP accountable for his imprisonment.
