Hong Kong Democracy Council (HKDC) is the first and only
DC-based, nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to defending Hong Kong’s autonomy and freedoms.

In this darkest moment in Hong Kong’s history with the menacing imposition of the National Security Law, when pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong can no longer travel abroad to raise international support or speak out safely without risking arrest or imprisonment, even extradition, HKDC’s role is more crucial than ever. 

We need your help to continue acting as the diplomatic outpost for Hong Kong’s pro-democracy movement in the US. 


Since our launch just nine months ago (September 2019), HKDC has led the successful efforts to:


1.     Pass the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act, PROTECT Hong Kong Act, and Hong Kong Autonomy Act.
2.     Hold China accountable for eroding “one country, two systems” and violating Hong Kong’s “high degree of autonomy,” leading to the Department of State’s decertification of Hong Kong’s autonomous status
3.     Impose visa bans on Chinese officials undermining Hong Kong’s autonomy and human rights
4.     Introduce 14 pieces of Hong Kong legislation in Congress including immigration and refugee protections for Hongkongers
5.     Keep Hong Kong as one of the highest bipartisan priorities on Capitol Hill through hundreds of hearings, briefings, meetings, and media posts
6.     Host the first-ever HKDC US-Hong Kong Policy Conference and Lobby Day in March 2020


100% of your support will go toward:

-Pass the “Hong Kong Safe Harbor Act”, “Hong Kong People’s Freedom and Choice Act” and propose additional legislations  
-Impose additional sanctions on CCP and Hong Kong officials and entities undermining Hong Kong’s autonomy

「HKDC」
是為香港爭取高度自治和自由的民間外交使團,是第一也是唯一的在美港人駐華府的無黨派非牟利組織。

隨著國安法來勢洶洶,香港籠罩在不見天日的黑暗之下,為香港民主努力的人將無法離境爭取國際聲援,其在國際社會發表的言論, 恐怕會帶來人身監禁、囹圄之災, 甚至被引渡至大陸境內。HKDC在華府的操作,今後更舉足輕重。


為持續發展在美民間外交力量,HKDC需要您的長期支持。


自去年九月成立以來,HKDC全力促成下列議程:

1.協助通過《香港人權與民主法案》、《保護香港法案》與《香港自治法案 》。

2.堅持中國必須對侵蝕一國兩制及違反香港的高度自治負起責任, 促成國務院確認香港不再享有高度自治。

3.對迫害香港自治與人權的相關中國官員實施簽證禁令。


4.引薦14項香港相關法案,包含香港移民及難民保護法。


5.透過上百場聽證會、簡報、會議、媒體文宣,使香港成為美國國會最受兩黨關注的議題之一 。


6. 籌辦今年三月首場HKDC美港政策會議及遊說日。





全數捐款將分配於:

爭取美國儘快向香港人提供更強支援和保障 (40%)

-通過《香港避風港法案 》、《香港人民自由和選擇法案》,與及建議及推動其他美國對香港的政策與法案

-加強對侵害香港自治的中國與香港官員和機構實施制裁。
