    Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues Co-Chair Frank Pallone, Jr. (D-NJ)
    briefed more than 75 Los Angeles-area supporters on several pertinent
    community issues, including a bill that would extend permanent normal trade
    relations (PNTR) to Armenia, during a June 26 breakfast held in his honor.
    During the event hosted by the Armenian Assembly of America, the Armenian
    General Benevolent Union (AGBU), and the Western Diocese of the Armenian
    Church of America, Pallone also discussed the Nagorno Karabakh peace process
    and attributed the recent victory in maintaining military parity to Armenia
    and Azerbaijan to the hard work and tenacity of community activists.

    Pallone also hailed the "spirit of cooperation" displayed by event
    organizers and urged the community to remain united in future endeavors.
    The event, at the AGBU Center in Pasadena, attracted several community
    leaders including CA State Assemblywoman Carol Liu, Glendale City Councilman
    Frank Quinterro, and Pasadena Police Chief Bernard Melekian.

    organization promoting public understanding and awareness of Armenian
    issues. It is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt membership organization.
