/PanARMENIAN.Net/ At the urging of the Armenian Assembly, Congressman
Bob Beauprez (R-CO) on October 6 officially joined the Congressional
Caucus on Armenian Issues, bringing the total Caucus membership to
147. Beauprez is the first lawmaker from the state to be part of this
all-important body.
"I'm proud to have joined the Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues,"
said Beauprez. "I look forward to working with the Armenian-Americans
in the 7th District of Colorado and across the entire country to ensure
Armenian-American issues are articulated in Washington." The Assembly's
Western Office organized and led a meeting with the Congressman's
district staff in August to discuss the community's concerns and
encourage the lawmaker's membership to the Caucus. Armenians of
Colorado, a coalition of local Armenian-American activists, also
participated in the meeting. "We're pleased Congressman Beauprez
decided to join the Caucus as a result of direct meetings with the
Assembly and Armenians of Colorado," said Western Office Director
Lena Kaimian. "The Congressman has been highly receptive to our
issues. We look forward to working with him and his colleagues
in securing continued robust assistance to Armenia and Karabakh,
combating Armenia's isolationism and strengthening democracy and the
rule of law."
