Pennsylvania Members of Congress Send Greeting Letters to Mark World Falun Dafa Day and Show Support for Freedom of Belief

May 10, 2021 |   By a Falun Gong practitioner in U.S.A.

(Minghui.org) May 13, 2021 is World Falun Dafa Day and the 29th anniversary of Falun Dafa’s public introduction. Falun Dafa has benefited more than 100 million people in over 100 countries. 

Scott Perry and Mike Doyle, Pennsylvania Members of Congress, sent greeting letters to the Falun Dafa Association of Philadelphia to commend Falun Dafa and the practitioners’ perseverance. They also condemned the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution, and expressed their support to help end the brutality. 

Representative Scott Perry

Representative Scott Perry stated in his letter, “With profound gratitude for our Nation’s commitment to religious liberty, please accept this letter of support for World Falun Dafa Day. The heart wrenching trials borne patiently by Falun Gong practitioners in the face of a genocidal and dictatorial Chinese Communist Party (CCP) stand as a testament to the indomitable will of those who aspire to live in freedom.”

“What the Beijing government has inflicted on Falun Gong practitioners is nothing short of genocide. The United States Congress will continue to do everything possible to ensure that the CCP ceases its cruel and barbaric practices, it is intimidated by the courage and persistence of the Falun Gong and all those who believe in the free exercise of religion. Our Nation earnestly hopes and prays that, like the Soviet Union, the CCP will be relegated to the dustbin of history.”

Representative Mike Doyle

Representative Mike Doyle stated in his letter, “I want to send you greetings as you celebrate World Falun Dafa Day, and I also want to reiterate my strong opposition to the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners by the Chinese government.”

“The United States was founded on the principle of unalienable human rights, including the freedom of religion. Most Americans want our government to respect and promote human rights around the world. I have consistently worked to ensure that the U.S. Government stands up for human rights in its dealings with the Chinese Government. I welcome this opportunity to reaffirm my opposition to the Chinese Government’s brutal repression of Falun Dafa practitioners.”
