Sent a letter signed by 28 religious and human rights leaders of varying faiths to members of Congress, communicating
concerns regarding the escalating threats to religious freedom in Russia, and respectfully requesting that they raise this issue
with the Russian Ambassador to the United States. The gravest threat to religious freedom in Russia is the federal government's use of the 2002 Extremism Law to censor religious scriptures and disrupt religious organizations under the pretext of...
combating religious extremism. This has led to nationwide bans of widely-published religious literature, and comes against an established pattern of government obstruction of religious minority communities, using provisions of the 1997 Religion Law and the 2006 NGO Law. Urged members of Congress to sign on to a congressional sign-on letter to the Russian Ambassador.
Urged members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to ask proposed questions of the nominee for the position of Ambassador at Large for International Religious Freedom.
