(Minghui.org) Practitioners in New Jersey held introductory activities in Seaside Heights on June 29, 2025, and in Asbury Park on July 5, 2025. Many vacationers learned about the benefits of practicing Falun Dafa (also known as Falun Gong) and how the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) persecutes it. They also expressed their support for the Falun Gong Protection Act, and some learned the exercises.

Practitioners in New Jersey hold such events at vacation destinations every summer, and the people in Seaside Heights are very supportive. Police officers on the boardwalk were touched that practitioners demonstrated the exercises in the blazing heat. They learned about the CCP’s persecution and took a group picture with practitioners.

Practitioners focused on the CCP’s extension of its persecution to the U.S. Many people expressed concern and signed the petition to show their support for the Falun Gong Protection Act, which was passed by the House of Representatives and must now go to the Senate for approval.

Ms. Wang said she believed what practitioners told her about the persecution and supported their efforts to stop the CCP’s atrocities.
