    How would the bill's sanctions framework distinguish between legitimate Chinese government activities and unauthorized police operations on U.S. soil?

  2. 02

    What evidence prompted Congress to pursue asset freezes and visa bans rather than relying on existing law enforcement tools to address this issue?

  3. 03

    How might other countries respond if the U.S. imposes these sanctions, and could it create reciprocal consequences for American officials abroad?
