Hong Kong's legislature on Thursday moved closer to amending electoral laws that would drastically reduce the public's ability to vote and increase the number of pro-Beijing lawmakers making decisions for the city.

The second reading of the bill was passed by a 40-2 vote, with the only two non-establishment lawmakers voting against. The bill is expected to be voted on again during the third reading, but little or no opposition is expected.
