US Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson: The Freedom to Practice One's Beliefs Is a Fundamental Human Right
(Clearwisdom.net)
Congress of the United States
October 2, 2003
To: Falun Dafa Practitioners of Texas
Dear Friends:
Thank you for inviting me to be a part of Falun Dafa Day in Houston, Texas on October 12, 2003. Unfortunately, I will not be able to join you in person to celebrate Falun Dafa's beliefs in truthfulness, compassion and forbearance.
The freedom to practice one's beliefs is a fundamental human right. I admire your dedication to Falun Dafa, and I support the rights of Falun Dafa practitioners to practice their religion freely and without fear of persecution.
Again, thank you for extending such a kind invitation.
Sincerely,
Eddie Bernice Johnson
Member of Congress
