Cramer, Colleagues Urge Olympic Committee to Hold China Accountable and Ensure Human Rights Upheld at 2022 Beijing Olympics | 2019-12-05 | 2019 | 2019-12 | Republican | House | ND | Kevin Cramer | C001096 | www.cramer.senate.gov | legacy | WASHINGTON, D.C. As Beijing prepares to host the 2022 Olympic Winter Games, the international community remembers the human rights abuses that occurred during China's 2008 tenure as host. Today, Senators Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.), Richard Durbin (D-Ill.), Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), Rick Scott (R-Fla.), Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.), Todd Young (R-Ind.) and Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) are urging the International Olympic Committee to implement its Host City Contract requirements in time for the Beijing Games instead of the current timeline of 2024. The new guidelines, among other requirements, hold host cities to international human rights norms and standards.
