November 28, 2011 | by USCIRF
The Honorable Hillary Rodham Clinton
Secretary of State
U.S. Department of State
Washington, DC
Dear Madam Secretary:
As you prepare to travel to Burma, I am writing on behalf of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) to urge you to raise concerns about freedom of religion publically during your trip. Religion drives serious human rights abuses in Burma, particularly against ethnic minorities and Buddhist monks who participated in peaceful protests in 2007. We believe improvements in religious freedom should be a critical benchmark for gauging the government of Burma’s commitment to genuine reform.
