House Passes Falun Gong Protection Act to Counter CCP’s Forced Organ Harvesting

The House of Representatives, by voice vote with no objections, passed a bill on May 5 aimed at ending Beijing’s persecution of the spiritual group Falun Gong.

The bill, the Falun Gong Protection Act (HR 1540), passed with broad bipartisan support and includes provisions to sanction individuals implicated in the forced harvesting of organs of Falun Gong practitioners.

The sanctions would apply to a list of foreign nationals “who the President determines to have knowingly and directly engaged in or facilitated the involuntary harvesting of organs within the People’s Republic of China,” the bill states.

Sanction penalties include blocking an offender from entering the United States, invalidating the offender’s visa, and imposing criminal punishment of fines of up to $1 million and 20 years in prison, among others.

Rep. Scott Perry (R-Pa.), lead sponsor of the Falun Gong Protection Act, said “there has to be some consequence to this barbaric and horrific behavior.”

“The United States should be a leader and show the world the way,“ he told The Epoch Times. ”We must do it and force the rest of the world to acknowledge it.”

Falun Gong, a spiritual practice involving meditative exercises and teachings based on the principles of truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance, has faced harsh repression in China since 1999. The Chinese regime views Falun Gong’s popularity as a threat and has subjected its 70 million to 100 million practitioners to arrests, prolonged jailing, forced labor, and various other kinds of torture.

The Falun Gong Protection Act directs the United States to work with allies and multilateral institutions to raise awareness about the persecution and coordinate targeted sanctions and visa restrictions with the international community.

It instructs the United States to make it a policy to avoid cooperating with China on transplantation while the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is in power.
