The Winter Olympics in Beijing are fast approaching. The Biden Administration is not sending a delegation to the games, because of China's human rights abuses. Some Republicans are also calling attention to religious persecution taking place against Catholics and other faith groups. Senator Rick Scott says "We cannot let anyone forget what is happening in communist China. NBC must use these Olympics to highlight these atrocities. Sadly, I doubt they will. That's why we're here today to make sure no one forgets." Surrounded by human rights groups, Senator Rick Scott says a US Olympic led boycott over China's human rights abuses would send a forceful message to the Communist country. Samuel Chu with Campaign for Hong Kong, says his own father faced abuse simply because he was a minister. Now, because Chu continues to speak out against the Communist regime, he's the first American citizen wanted under Hong Kong's National Security Law. According to a Radio Free Asia report, Chinese Christians, including Catholic priests are allegedly being detained at secretive brainwashing camps, where they are tortured. Capitol Hill Correspondent, Erik Rosales reports.
