I think most are aware, McConnell’s wife is Chinese and they have business interests there. More “gifts” to come?

So what are the proposed changes to the Hong Kong Policy Act?

Is the USA diverting from the 1997 decision?

A Senatorial "hold" prevents a bill from going to a full floor vote for "Unanimous Consent". Unanimous Consent is when non-controversial bills are sent to the floor by the Senate leadership and a voice vote is taken without any amendments being offered or any debate on the floor.

Although I might like the bill, it should still be held with a recorded vote. Everything in Congress should be by recorded vote - I want their fingerprints on everything they do. Hell, I want a mug shot with every vote instead of just fingerprints. They've lost the privilege of even voting for Prairie Dog Appreciation Day by unanimous consent.

The article mentions but doesn’t name 9 Senators supporting a “hold”. Who are they ?
