Organ Harvesting Committee on Foreign Affairs House of Re

The Chinese Communist Party has one of the largest forces for evil in the world today. The systematic government-sponsored harvesting of organs is a monstrous crime. The Chinese regime not only deprives its people of their basic rights on a daily basis but literally steals their body parts for a profit. Due to the tireless work of human rights defenders, journalists and investigators, the truth about what the Chinese have been doing for years is now becoming known to the world. Organ harvesting is just one of many techniques the Chinese state security uses. But there are other groups who use this and other groups that have been victimized other than just the Falun Gong. The problem of organ theft and organ trafficking is a global one. The state-sponsored nature of what happens in China is especially unsavory but the practice takes place worldwide. The black market for organs is estimated to be worth over $1 billion a year. It is vital that the Chinese Government is held accountable. Otherwise, the wrong message will be sent all over the world, undermining efforts to prevent organ trafficking.
