Over the past two years, the administration\u2019s decision to reprogram a portion of the military aid to Egypt conditioned on human rights has led the Egyptian government to take limited, albeit insufficient, steps to address U.S. concerns, without undermining the bilateral relationship. Withholding the full amount conditioned on human rights will demonstrate the continued importance that the United States places on the Egyptian government adequately addressing the dire human rights crisis and that, to date, it has not done nearly enough.<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"23\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"24\">The administration took the unprecedented step in each of the last two years of withholding $130 million of the $300 million in conditioned FMF due to Egypt\u2019s failure to meet the congressionally mandated human rights conditions attached to the funds. Notably, these decisions contributed to the release of more than 1,000 political prisoners and steps toward closing the cases for some human rights defenders, although many others remain subject to asset freezes and travel bans.<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"25\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"26\">But the Egyptian government\u2019s actions in recent months demonstrate that it has not halted its repression campaign or delivered on commitments to meaningfully improve the human rights situation. The long-delayed National Dialogue and the country\u2019s National Human Rights Strategy, launched in September 2021, have not resulted in meaningful reform despite the government touting these initiatives. At the same time, President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi\u2019s government has continued its merciless crackdown on the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cpj.org\/mideast\/egypt\/\" data-reader-unique-id=\"27\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"28\">press<\/span><\/a><span data-reader-unique-id=\"29\">, political opposition, and civil society. In the same period that authorities were touting their release of 1,645 political prisoners, they <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SajeenSiyasy\/status\/1681398673970798593?s=20\" data-reader-unique-id=\"30\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"31\">detained<\/span><\/a><span data-reader-unique-id=\"32\"> 4,968 others according to local activists, and thousands more have had their pretrial detentions renewed. They have also failed to close the infamous Foreign Funding case, also known as Case 173, which has targeted Egyptian civil society for more than a decade, despite repeated promises. Over the past year, as the State Department\u2019s annual human rights report has documented, the government has systematically restricted the freedoms of expression, association, and assembly; further eroded civic space; <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.accessnow.org\/press-release\/egypt-rights-groups-condemn-latest-blocking-of-news-websites\/\" data-reader-unique-id=\"33\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"34\">blocked additional news websites<\/span><\/a><span data-reader-unique-id=\"35\"> raising the total number blocked to at least 132; and committed a barrage of egregious rights violations including extrajudicial killings, forced disappearances, arbitrary detentions, and transnational repression.<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"36\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"37\">We urge the administration to withhold the full $320 million in conditioned FMF, as provided for by Congress. The Egyptian government has not taken \u201csustained and effective steps\u201d to meet the rights and governance conditions attached to $235 million in FMF. It has likewise failed to make \u201cclear and consistent progress in releasing political prisoners, providing detainees with due process of law, and preventing the intimidation and harassment of U.S. citizens,\u201d attached to the remaining $85 million in aid, as evidenced by the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/timep.org\/2023\/06\/21\/the-facade-of-dialogue-and-political-openness-egypts-increasing-repression-and-arbitrary-detention\/\" data-reader-unique-id=\"38\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"39\">increase<\/span><\/a><span data-reader-unique-id=\"40\">in arrests and the number of individuals subjected to illegal and arbitrary detention practices, as well as by introducing a new remote <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrw.org\/news\/2023\/05\/26\/egypt-pretrial-detention-renewals-video\" data-reader-unique-id=\"41\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"42\">pretrial detention hearings system<\/span><\/a><span data-reader-unique-id=\"43\">that encompasses flagrant due process violations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"44\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"45\">At this pivotal moment, we urge the administration to use the tools provided by Congress to withhold the full amount of conditioned FMF, as respect for human rights is inextricably linked to U.S. national security interests in Egypt and around the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"46\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"47\">Thank you for your consideration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"48\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"49\">Sincerely,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"51\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"52\">Access Now<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"53\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"54\">Amnesty International USA<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"55\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"56\">Belady-An Island for Humanity (BIH)<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"57\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"58\">Cairo Institute for Human Rights Studies (CIHRS)<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"59\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"60\">Center for International Policy (CIP)<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"61\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"62\">Committee for Justice (CFJ)<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"63\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"64\">Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ)<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"65\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"66\">Democracy for the Arab World Now (DAWN)<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"67\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"68\">Egyptian Front for Human Rights (EFHR)<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"69\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"70\">Egyptian Human Rights Forum (EHRF)<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"71\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"72\">EuroMed Rights<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"73\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"74\">Femena<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"75\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"76\">Freedom Forward<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"77\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"78\">Freedom House<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"79\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"80\">The Freedom Initiative<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"81\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"82\">Human Rights First<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"83\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"84\">Human Rights Watch<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"85\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"86\">HuMENA for Human Rights and Civic Engagement\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"87\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"88\">PEN America<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"89\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"90\">PEN International<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"91\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"92\">Project on Middle East Democracy (POMED)<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"93\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"94\">Refugees Platform In Egypt (RPE)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-reader-unique-id=\"95\"><span data-reader-unique-id=\"96\">The Tahrir Institute for Middle East Policy (TIMEP)<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Honorable Antony J.
