Rep. Swalwell Comments on Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission Hearing on India

WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Representative Eric Swalwell (CA-15) released the following statement on the hearing held today by the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission regarding India:

"While I appreciate the work of the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission on behalf of human rights around the world, I am concerned about the timing of today's hearing. We must never let the cause of human rights, which should be universal, be negatively affected by partisan, ideological, or religious divisions."
