Both of my parents were frequently arrested and sent to prison for their beliefs Today they are talking about repression in China on Capitol Hill in Washington A forum on this topic is taking place here Refugees from China have come to share their personal experiences Lidia Wang practices Falun Dafa This meditative self-cultivation practice A philosophy based on the principles of truth kindness and patience They were introduced to the general public in China in 1992 But in 1999 the Chinese Communist Party began severely persecuting its followers Due to its large numbers and moral principles that contradicted the party's atheist ideology When the persecution began Van's parents were immediately arrested Her father was arrested and sent to a camp where he was tortured He became disabled and later died from his injuries When the father was released from prison his health was very poor And soon after he died In 2022 her mother was arrested for the 11th time for distributing information about Falun Gong Those who spread the false accusations by the authorities are now serving a four-year prison sentence I have known Falun Gong practitioners for a long time They simply want religious freedom The Chinese authorities fear them because there are so many of them Therefore we must continue to resist them They also talk about the party-sanctioned forced organ removal Forced organ harvesting is something unique to China China's government is the only one in the world that forcibly removes organs from its own citizens According to investigations the main source of organs for sale is Falun Gong supporters But among the victims are also Uyghur Muslims Tibetans and members of house Christian churches They are imprisoned without legal justification And the authorities have a database of these prisoners of conscience In which the appropriate organs are selected Blood is taken for analysis They often transplant their organs to high-ranking communist officials But they can also be sold to anyone in the world who is willing to pay Someone says it sounds terrible Why aren't the media reporting on it Instead the Chinese authorities spend billions of dollars to spread false propaganda in all languages One of the many bills in the United States aimed at addressing this issue is the Falun Gong Protection Act The House of Representatives passed it earlier this year and it is now awaiting a vote in the Senate
