                               RESOLUTION


 
    Expressing solidarity with the Tuidang Movement whereby Chinese 
  citizens renounce their ties to the Chinese Communist Party and its 
    affiliates, and calling for an immediate end to the campaign to 
                  persecute Falun Gong practitioners.

Whereas the CCP has caused unnatural deaths of at least 60 million people in 
        China;
Whereas the CCP continues to violently suppress peaceful movements, including 
        during the Tiananmen Square student democratic movement and the 19-year 
        long, on-going persecution of Falun Gong;
Whereas the CCP is responsible for organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners, 
        dissidents, and minority groups;
Whereas according to the United States Commission on International Religious 
        Freedom's (USCIRF) 2017 Annual Report on China, ``The government 
        continued to detain, imprison, and torture countless religious freedom 
        advocates, human rights defenders, and religious believers, including 
        highly persecuted Falun Gong practitioners.'';
Whereas according to the World Organization to Investigate the Persecution on 
        Falun Gong (WOIPFG), the genocidal mass killing of Falun Gong 
        practitioners via live organ harvesting has been orchestrated and 
        committed by the CCP;
Whereas the ``610 Office'' was established on June 10, 1999, to coordinate and 
        execute operations aimed at eliminating practitioners of Falun Gong;
Whereas according to the United States Congressional-Executive Commission on 
        China's (CECC) 2017 Annual Report, ``Government officials continued to 
        detain or otherwise restrict the freedom of Catholic and Christian 
        leaders in both the underground and official church.'';
Whereas the CCP coerced the Vatican to accept party-nominated bishops in China;
Whereas the Tuidang Movement supports freedom for the Chinese people and 
        renouncing membership in the CCP and its affiliates; and
Whereas the number of people renouncing their membership in the CCP reached a 
        total of approximately 300 million in 2018: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) expresses solidarity with Falun Gong practitioners and 
        their families;
            (2) calls upon the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to 
        immediately cease and desist its campaign to persecute Falun 
        Gong; and
            (3) expresses support for the Tuidang Movement and their 
        pursuit of a free and democratic government in China.
