Henry C. “Hank” Johnson Jr., Member of Congress
Congress of the United States

To Falun Gong practitioners and followers in Georgia and around the world:
As we approach the Falun Gong Association’s Capitol Hill Rally, I would like to express my solidarity with Falun Gong practitioners, particularly those who face persecution in the People’s Republic of China.
I hope for a time when the suffering of Falun Gong practitioners and all persecuted minorities will end. I hope for a time when freedom of religion is a universal value and a universal right.
With those goals in mind, I am committed to ensuring that human rights remain an important issue in the critical bilateral relationship between the United States and the People’s Republic of China.
My door is always open to you, and I look forward to serving and working with you in the future.
Warmly,
Henry C. “Hank” Johnson Jr.
Member of Congress
