Thank you, Senator Ben Cardin, for reminding President Biden to raise the cases of Radio Free Asia's Uyghur journalists with Xi Jinping. Their families in China are unjustly targeted by the CCP in retaliation for their brave reporting. #JournalismIsNotaCrime #PressFreedom
Thank you, Mike Gallagher, for your support as Radio Free Asia marks its 27th anniversary. I am so proud to helm an organization that brings answers, accountability, and empowerment through its journalism to people in Asia and around the world.
An engaging and timely conversation on a defining issue. Thank you Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi, and Mike Gallagher for the opportunity to contribute.
Thank you, Chairman Menendez. Denying the Cambodian people access to Radio Free Asia underscores the value and need for RFA’s mission. Senate Foreign Relations Committee
Great meeting with Rep. Jake Auchincloss 🟧 about Radio Free Asia and the vital role of independent journalism in countering China's malign influence. Thank you for the public support in hearings: twitter.com/RepAuchincloss… and in the press: twitter.com/JakeAuch/statu…
So proud of all the hard work by Radio Free Asia journalists that has resulted in incredible impact during this historic week, as noted in this WaPo editorial:

I'm so proud to helm this unique organization, with its amazing journalists who risk everything in pursuit of the truth, at a time when this work is more crucial than ever. Happy anniversary, Radio Free Asia!
Thank you, Secretary Antony Blinken, for hosting this event today that featured Radio Free Asia journalist Gulchehra Hoja. Chinese authorities have targeted Gulchehra and her Uyghur Service colleagues for their role in exposing abuses in #Xinjiang . twitter.com/SecBlinken/sta…
Despite the deterioration of a free press worldwide, Radio Free Asia stands strong, keeping 60 million+ in Asia informed on a weekly basis. A big thank you to @senrobportman and Sen. Senator Chris Coons, and all our supporters in the Senate, for recognizing RFA's continued importance.
Thanks,
Rep. Jim McGovern, for raising China’s retaliation against
Radio Free Asia’s Uyghur journalists at yesterday’s
China Commission hearing with Under Secretary Uzra Zeya. This appalling treatment is part of an effort to discourage RFA’s pivotal work in #Xinjiang . cecc.gov/events/hearing…
It was a lot of fun talking about my career and our work at RFA with DC's own iHeartMedia! It is especially meaningful that it is airing during #aapiheritagemonth , at a time when we are looking for ways to boost AAPI leadership and community.
Thank you #Fulbright for giving me my initial opportunity overseas. It meant the world to me!
Thank you Washington Post Opinions for recognizing the importance of our work! These radio stations are far from obsolete. They’re vital. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…
