Dear Friends:

I would like to take this opportunity to recognize the commemoration of the 11^th Annual World Falun Dafa Day. This wonderful event celebrates the day that Falun Dafa, also known as Falun Gong, was first introduced to the public in May of 1992 in China.

The core principles of the Falun Gong practitioners, which include truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance, all benefit society as they are key to promoting peaceful relations throughout the world.

Please accept my very best wishes not only for this event, but for all of your future endeavors.

Sincerely,

Paul D. Tonko

Member of Congress
