The CCP fears anything it cannot directly control, perhaps most of all, faith,&#8221; Cruz said in a statement to Fox News Digital. &#8220;The United States has powerful tools to provide protection and relief to people facing persecution and violence, and we should use those tools unless and until China releases the members of the Zion Church.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The resolution is aimed at &#8220;expressing condemnation of the Chinese Communist Party\u2019s persecution of Christians and reaffirming the United States\u2019 global commitment to promote religious freedom and tolerance.&#8221; It also includes a demand that the CCP respect the human right to freedom of religion and end all forms of violence and discrimination against religious minorities.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/chinas-malign-influence-touches-every-aspect-us-life-we-all-need-help-stop-them\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CHINA&#8217;S MALIGN INFLUENCE TOUCHES EVERY ASPECT OF US LIFE.

I am proud to be an original co-sponsor of this resolution, which sends a clear message: faith is not a crime, and the United States condemns the recent alarming arrests of church leaders by CCP authorities,&#8221; Sen. Shelley Moore\u202fCapito, R-W.Va., said in a statement to Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/world\/chinese-underground-church-pastor-father-us-citizens-detained-authorities-family-says\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CHINESE UNDERGROUND CHURCH PASTOR, FATHER OF US CITIZENS, DETAINED BY AUTHORITIES, FAMILY SAYS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, Chinese authorities arrested <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/faith-values\/faith\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">several Christian leaders<\/a>, including the pastor of one of the country&#8217;s biggest underground evangelical churches, Pastor Jin Mingri, whose children are U.S. citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Grace Jin, Mingri&#8217;s daughter, told Fox News Digital that her family is grateful for Cruz&#8217;s work.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;His efforts demonstrate that the world is watching on as the Chinese government unjustly imprisons pastors and church leaders for the peaceful exercise of their faith. Thank you to leaders here and abroad for all the support and solidarity,&#8221; Grace told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n<p>Mingri of Zion Church was detained by Chinese authorities, Grace told Fox News Digital on Oct. 11. A document provided to Fox News Digital states that Jin&#8217;s arrest came as nearly 30 Zion Church pastors and workers were detained or went missing across Beijing, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Chengdu, Beihai, Jiaxing and Huangdao.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One after another, they were also taken, detained. Like, they were saying that there were people outside their doors, and then one at a time they were taken into custody,&#8221; Grace told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n<p>The fates of Mingri and other Christian leaders arrested alongside him remain uncertain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/cruz-leads-senate-push-hold-china-accountable-beijing-church-crackdown\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/cruz-leads-senate-push-hold-china-accountable-beijing-church-crackdown <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sen.
