This is not just about helping a persecuted faith group in a distant country (China). Stopping the CCP’s forced organ harvesting is protecting us here in the United States by weakening the CCP and their “unrestricted warfare” practices being waged against the U.S. and free people from around the world. We should be thanking and supporting Falun Gong practitioners, especially in China, no matter what faith we practice. They are standing courageously for freedom of religion.Contact Your Representative… Senator Congress

Virtually everyone in China was either targeted or forced to be complicit…”

Kirk’s Comments on Falun Gong…

* Falun Gong practitioners are some of the most Gandhi like people I know. Three words sum up there philosophy, “Trustfulness, Compassion and Tolerance (Forbearance)”.

* Falun Gong practitioners are a threat to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) not because of physical violence but because they are truly an example of hope for the Chinese people and oppressed people around the world who are under authoritarian rule.

* These courageous people (Falun Gong), especially practicing in China, bring great hope for freedom of religion and beliefs throughout the world.

* Live organ harvesting of any people is heinous and unthinkable and if stopped in China (CCP) it will sen
