(Clearwisdom.net) On February 23, 2006, practitioners from the State
of Washington once again hosted a "Legislative Day" at the State
Government building. They did this to further expose the persecution and the
practice of Falun Gong to state congressional members. This wasis the fourth
"Legislative Day" that practitioners have held since 2003.
Practitioners paired up Chinese and English speakers to visit the offices of
42 elected official.
Practitioners focused on the attack of practitioner Dr. Peter Yuan Li in
Atlanta. He was assaulted and robbed in his home. They also spoke about the
federal congressional hearing on February 15 that condemned Microsoft, Yahoo,
Cisco Systems, and Google for helping the CCP to limit free speech and further
censorship in China. Practitioners distributed copies of the "Nine
Commentaries on Communist Party" and informed officials about the wave
of withdrawals from the CCP. In regard to Hu Jintao's upcoming visit,
practitioners drafted a letter to the Governor asking him to publicly condemn
the Chinese Communist regime's persecution of Falun Gong. Elected officials and
their assistants expressed concerns about the persecution. A Native-American
congressional member showed deep understanding on the history of the Chinese
Communist Party destroying the Chinese culture. Some of the officials very
positively responded in signing the letter to Governor.
Every office indicated that they often receive emails from practitioners.
Even though most of the offices are familiar the issue of Falun Gong, some of
the offices yet have never contacted practitioners directly. Practitioners
stated that they will try to do better and personally visit each and every one
office.
