⚠️ Heads up: this article is from our "experimental era" — a beautiful mess of enthusiasm ✨, caffeine ☕, and user-submitted chaos 🤹. We kept it because it’s part of our journey 🛤️ (and hey, everyone has awkward teenage years 😅).
The United States is taking action by imposing new visa restrictions on certain Hong Kong officials following the city's quick implementation of domestic security legislation.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken's recent statement did not specify a timeline or identify the officials being targeted.
