  1. #New #HumanRights data from Human Rights Measurement Initiative.
    #China once again got low scores, among the lowest, in empowerment right in 2024 - only 1.9 out of 10. Restrictions on #FreedomofExpression & #PoliticalRights. #TransnationalRepression is also serious. Details: rightstracker.org/country/CHN

  2. As secretary of #state, #Rubio is now responsible for the reports. He's the person who, traditionally, would promote their release to the public. But under his stewardship, those violations he cited — #SexualExploitation of #women & #children & the denial of #PoliticalRights to minorities — are being deleted from the reports.

  3. In 2013, then-Sen. #MarcoRubio underscored the importance of these audits, saying they shed light on "foreign governments' failure to respect" citizens' fundamental rights … from the #SexualExploitation of #women & #children to the denial of #PoliticalRights to *#minorities*."

    He said the reports show that "the #UnitedStates will stand with #freedom-seeking people around the world."
