Dear Mr. President:

Please recognize the serious human rights abuses that female practitioners of Falun Gong are experiencing in the People's Republic of China.

Falun Gong is a spiritual exercise with historic origins in China. In recent years, female practitioners have been abused physically and mentally by officials of the Chinese government. Some of the physical abuses are unconscionable, and should be met with stern opposition by the United States.

Several of my constituents have expressed alarm that atrocities against female practitioners of Falun Gong are committed. I strongly urge you to call for an end to these human rights abuses in China.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

MARTIN J. WALSH

State Representative
