Members of US Congress urge President Obama to support Falun Gong practitioners in China

Congressional letter calls Falun Gong plight “one of the most unjust and cruel persecutions of our times.”

“We applaud these members of Congress,” says Falun Dafa Information Center spokesperson Mr. Erping Zhang, “for articulating in no uncertain terms that the United States government will not tolerate the arbitrary arrest, torture and death of Falun Gong practitioners — peaceful, law-abiding citizens — as a result of a systematic Communist Party-run campaign. We hope President Obama and his administration will heed their call.”
