China reacted angrily to the House of Representatives’ passage of a bill paving the way for sanctions against individuals who undermine Hong Kong’s autonomy, as pro-democracy lawmakers in the Asian financial hub prevented the city’s leader from delivering a much-anticipated policy speech in the legislature. The Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act, approved unanimously Tuesday by the House, requires the U.S. government to consider annually whether it should continue to treat Hong Kong as a separate trading entity from mainland China in response to political developments in the city. It's that special status which has allowed Hong Kong to cement its role as an international financial center and exempts its goods and services from the Trump administration’s tariffs. China's Ambassador to the US said, "We absolutely forbid Congress from passing this type of offensive law and using inflammatory freedom language in such an inflammatory manner. There will be serious consequences for challenging China's censorship rules."
