JOHNNY ISAKSON
GEORGIA
UNITED STATES SENATE
WASHINGTON, D.C.

May 1, 2009

GREETINGS:

It is with great pleasure that I send my best wishes to each of you as you celebrate World Falun Dafa Day on May 13, 2009. This is a most important day and I will be thinking of you and know you will enjoy this very special occasion.

I believe that repression of religious freedom and basic human rights anywhere is detrimental to the advancement of human rights everywhere. The United States is founded on a free society where life, liberty and certain inalienable rights are guaranteed. That being said, I will continue to work with my colleagues on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to ensure that individuals around the world are free to practice religion as they choose, and to press the Chinese government to improve its record on human rights issues.

With warmest personal regards,

Sincerely

Johnny Isakson
