A significant moment, in history occurred as the United States House of Representatives approved the “Falun Gong Protection Act” (H.R.4132) signaling a step towards safeguarding rights and religious freedom. This legislation, championed by Representatives Scott Perry and Thomas Suozzi stands as a beacon of hope for Falun Gong followers who have endured human rights violations in China since 1999. The bill aims to address and combat the persecution faced by this group emphasizing values of truthfulness, compassion and forbearance. Through measures outlined in the act efforts are made to hold perpetrators of violence, repression and torture against Falun Gong practitioners accountable. Among its provisions are sanctions imposed by the President targeting individuals and entities complicit in human rights abuses, against Falun Gong adherents through visa bans and asset freezes.

The approval of this law marks a moment for upholding rights and freedoms. It shows the U.S. Governments commitment, to opposing persecution and promoting freedom of belief. Falun Gong followers have faced mistreatment, including torture, unlawful imprisonment and even forced organ removal for than two decades. This law takes a stand against atrocities and sends a clear message that violations of human rights will not be accepted.

CAP Liberté de Conscience praises the action taken by the U.S. House of Representatives. This legislation is in line with our organizations goal of advocating for freedom of belief thought and religion. It demonstrates how legislative measures can be used to combat oppression and unfairness.

The “Falun Gong Protection Act” goes beyond borders by encouraging solidarity among advocates, for human rights worldwide. It sets an example for other countries to address human rights violations and safeguard the freedoms of persecuted communities.

We call on the community to acknowledge the courage of Falun Gong practitioners and to continue supporting efforts that guarantee their safety and liberty. This act not shields the Falun Gong community. Also reinforces fundamental principles of human dignity and individual rights sanctity.
