What’s happening with Falun Gong Protection Act?

The Falun Gong Protection Act is S. 817, which has been in the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations since March 2, 2025. The committee members must act next to hold a vote, but most bills fail because committees choose not to take action. This effort faces a high hurdle because the vast majority of bills never receive a committee vote.
