Momentum is building among members of Congress to boycott the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing.
A new House resolution, introduced Wednesday by Reps. Michael Waltz (R., Fla.), John Katko (R., N.Y.), and Guy Reschenthaler (R., Penn.), calls for the United States to lead an international effort to walk away from the games unless they are relocated from China. Waltz said that the bill intends to spare the nation no quarter for its human rights abuses and genocidal practices in Xinjiang.
