Since the global "SOS: Urgent Rescue Falun Gong Practitioners Persecuted in China" campaign started in June, many practitioners in Edison came to public places to distribute SOS flyers and collect signatures. In a short period of time, they collected a large amount of signatures. During the signature collecting, more citizens came to know the truth about Falun Gong. Many of them condemn Jiang Zemin's criminal regime for torturing and killing kind people, and support Falun Gong Practitioners' righteous actions. A Chinese man from Mainland China said to us: I support you! My friend was arrested because he practices Falun Gong. Please come up with a way to rescue him." One day, a person came to our SOS exhibition board and said:" I want to sign". He then told us: " I came from Cuba. I completely understand the cruel persecutions such as locking you into a small room of only a few square feet and leaving you unaware of day and night.

On the morning of July 25, after getting a permission from the Police Sheriff, six Falun Gong practitioners came to the Edison government building, set up SOS appeal letters and pictures of the Shijiazhuang practitioners being persecuted, and collected signatures. Many government employees working in the building and those who came over for business signed their names. Some indicated that they would like to come to our practice site to learn the exercises.
