Take Action!       Petition the U.S. Government to support freedom and democracy activists arrested in Hong Kong We Hold These Truths ADD YOUR NAME For the past year, the people of Hong Kong took to the streets to express their desire to remain an autonomous, self-governed city and demand that Beijing respect the "one country, two systems" style of governance. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, people have been off the streets to halt the spread of the virus, but it also halted the people's efforts. On April 19, Hong Kong authorities arrested 15 prodemocracy leaders/activists. Among them was Figo Chan, who received the Halifax Forum's John S. McCain Prize for Leadership in Public Service on behalf of the People of Hong Kong. On May 18, Figo and the 14 others will appear in court. The Chinese government has increased its rhetoric against the protesters, calling them "a political virus". Figo and the millions of people who have protested for freedom, need the support of people around the world. Show your support.                     Causes is now part of Countable.
