ARMENPAC CO-CHAIR ANNIE TOTAH MEETS WITH SENATOR HILLARY RODHAM
CLINTON (D-NY) AND REP. CHRIS VAN HOLLEN (D-MD)
Irving, TX - As part of ARMENPAC's ongoing effort to thank
pro-Armenian supporters in Congress and to educate our elected
officials about issues of importance to the Armenian community,
ARMENPAC Co-Chair Annie Totah recently met with Senator Hillary Rodham
Clinton (D-NY) and Congressman Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) at a special
reception for Congressman Van Hollen.
Totah thanked Senator Clinton and Congressman Van Hollen for their
support of legislation to affirm the Armenian Genocide (S. Res. 164
and H. Res. 193). This bipartisan, bicameral legislation was
introduced in the Senate by Senator John Ensign (R-NV) and in the
House by Congressmen George Radanovich (R-CA), Frank Pallone (D-NJ),
Joe Knollenberg (R-MI) and Adam Schiff (D-CA).
`Passage of this legislation will not only help defeat the ongoing
Turkish campaign to deny the Armenian Genocide, but will also help
ensure that the lessons of this terrible crime against humanity are
used to prevent future genocides against Armenians or any other ethnic
minority or peoples,' said ARMENPAC Co-Chair Annie Totah.
S. Res. 164 is pending further action in the Senate Judiciary
Committee, while H. Res. 193, having been approved by the House
Judiciary Committee, has stalled on the House Calendar awaiting
consideration by the full House.
ARMENPAC is an independent, bipartisan political action committee and
was established to shape public policy by raising awareness of and
advocating for Armenian-American issues. ARMENPAC provides financial
support to federal officeholders, candidates, political action
committees and organizations that actively support issues of
importance to Armenian-Americans.
