Congress of the United States
House of Representatives
May 13, 2010
Dear Friends,
I am writing to congratulate the members of the Greater Philadelphia Falun Dafa Association for their efforts to educate the public on the peaceful practice of Falun Dafa. Today, I also acknowledge the 100 million Falun Dafa practitioners from over 100 countries for their pursuit of honesty, kindness and mercy.
As you may know, I joined my fellow Members of Congress in voting for and passing House Resolution 605, recognizing the persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners by the Chinese Communist Party and calling for an immediate end to the CCP's intimidation, imprisonment and torture of the practitioners of Falun Dafa. I will continue to work with my colleagues in Congress toward the promotion of religious tolerance and protection of human rights.
I join all the good people of the 7th Congressional District of Pennsylvania in supporting the important mission of the Greater Philadelphia Falun Dafa Association on World Falun Dafa Day 2010.
Sincerely,
Joe Sestak
Member of Congress
