Ruth Wang, a courageous Chinese human rights lawyer, her husband, and their two young children are in dire need of asylum in the United States. Currently, they find themselves in Taiwan, a temporary stop after an urgent escape from their homeland, China, in September 2026. The family had no choice but to flee due to Ruth’s unwavering defense of members from Beijing’s unregistered Zion Church—a commitment that drew intense scrutiny and persecution from the Chinese government.

Ruth Wang dedicated much of her career at VDoor Law Firm to upholding human rights and advocating for those who face religious persecution in China. Her work, particularly in defending the freedom of religious practice, painted a target on her back in a nation that often suppresses such liberties. Her decision to flee was not made lightly; it was a forced choice between continuing her indispensable work and ensuring the safety of her own family.

The United States has a long-standing tradition of opening its doors to those who are facing persecution. Offering asylum to Ruth and her family aligns with the very values that this nation was built upon—protecting those who have stood up for liberties and rights, even at the risk of their own safety.

Moreover, Ruth’s legal expertise and courage in standing against human rights abuses would be an asset to the U.S., contributing to our shared goal of promoting global justice and freedom.

We urge the U.S. government to act swiftly and compassionately by granting asylum to Ruth Wang, her husband, and their children. Their future, safety, and ability to continue the fight for human rights depend on it.

Please sign this petition to show your support for Ruth Wang’s asylum in the United States and stand with us in demonstrating our commitment to protecting those who fight for justice and human rights worldwide.
