The letter reads, in part, “Your organization assists in offering free classes across many cities and states to help others improve their mental, moral, and physical wellbeing to contribute to a healthier society. Falun Dafa was first introduced to the public in 1992 and to Dallas-Fort Worth in 1996. Since then, free introductory classes by volunteers have been held in public places such as city libraries, recreation centers and public parks. Falun Dafa practitioners have become an integral part of society’s fabric.”
