Seeking Support for Resolution on Bhutan
Dear Senators/Representatives,
I am writing this letter to strongly urge you to vote affirmatively on House Resolution 228/ Senate Resolution 108. The resolution is the first of its kind and condemns the kingdom of Bhutan for the forced eviction of more than 100 thousand ethnic Nepali minorities.
The ethnic Nepali Bhutanese resided in refugee camps in eastern Nepal for nearly two decades before receiving resettlement opportunities in your district/state.
I know the senator/congressperson is deeply committed to the values of justice, peace, and reconciliation. The resolution urges the kingdom of Bhutan to seek truth, find peace, and engage in the process of mutual reconciliation.
It is only right that we recognize human rights abuses worldwide, and denounce them where we see them.
I thank the Senators/Representatives for due consideration of this critical resolution and hope for your vote.
Sincerely,
Thank you,
