Letter of Support: “I Will Continue to Promote H. Con. Res. 188 and Human Rights Worldwide”

Dear Lucy,
Thank you for contacting me in support of H. Con. Res. 188. I appreciate your comments and welcome the opportunity to respond.

I share your concerns with respect to the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners, which is why I am a cosponsor of H. Con. Res. 188, which expresses the Sense of Congress that the People’s Republic of China should cease persecuting practitioners of Falun Gong. This bill also calls on the United States government to urge the Republic of China to release from detention and end the cruel and inhumane torture of Falun Gong practitioners.

I appreciate your support of my vote for this measure. Currently, the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations is reviewing H. Con. Res. 188. As a member of the House Committee on International Relations, I will continue to promote this resolution and human rights worldwide.

Once again, thank you for contacting my office and please do not hesitate to contact me again if I can be of further assistance. I look forward to working with you on other matters of mutual concern.

Sincerely,
Shelley Berkley
Member of Congress
