βAs a decorated Olympian and member of an elite global sport community, BGβs detention must be resolved out of respect for the sanctity of all sport and for all Americans traveling internationally,β James posted on Twitter. βIt is imperative that the U.S. Government immediately address this human rights issue and do whatever is necessary to return Brittney home.β
βJoin us in demanding that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris bring Brittney home swiftly and safely by taking action today.β
