THE ARMENPAC SURVEY RESULTS ARE IN - 380 Respondents' Positions Published on
www.armenpac.org - 207 Pledges to Join the Armenian Caucus
Irving, TX - ARMENPAC has released the responses of its 2006 Congressional
Candidate Questionnaire in which over 1,900 congressional hopefuls were
surveyed on current issues of importance to the Armenian-American community.
ARMENPAC investigated the positions of all candidates for the United States
Senate and House of Representatives to empower Armenian-American voters by
providing them with the information necessary to make an informed decision
in the upcoming midterm elections on November 7, 2006. ARMENPAC is the
first Armenian organization to educate all federal candidates, and to
provide them with a forum to share their opinions, on fundamental
Armenian-American issues.
"ARMENPAC's Congressional Candidate Questionnaire initiative, which educates
federal candidates who are unfamiliar with the pressing issues that are
important to Armenian-Americans and empowers voters concerned with Armenia,
Nagorno Karabakh and Unites States relations, is a critical component of
ARMENPAC's efforts to raise awareness of, and advocate for, policies that
help create peace, security and stability in the Caucasus region," commented
ARMENPAC Co-Chair Edgar Hagopian.
ARMENPAC requires a strong foundation of Armenian-American supporters in
order to maintain and advance a beneficial relationship between the United
States, Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh. To execute Armenian goals, a
legislative body comprised of leaders devoted to facilitating and supporting
initiatives that benefit Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh is imperative. The
ARMENPAC Congressional Candidate Questionnaire has apprised voters with the
knowledge necessary to make an informed decision when voting. The right to
vote is a primary aspect of democratic governments, and ARMENPAC urges the
Armenian-American community to refer to its survey results, which are posted
at www.armenpac.org <http://www.armenpac.org/> , before voting on November
7, 2006. Armenian-American unity, despite partisan political beliefs, is
guaranteed to assist the Republics of, and our brothers and sisters in,
Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh.
"Armenian-American voters have profited from ARMENPAC's leadership in
pioneering this daunting survey initiative; ARMENPAC's initiatives are
setting the advocacy standard which other organizations are quickly
following and embracing as their own after a decade of apathy," said
ARMENPAC Co-Chair Annie Totah. "The information gained from this survey,
which is published on www.armenpac.org <http://www.armenpac.org/> for the
benefit of the entire Armenian-American community, will help us all to vote
for the candidates that will most likely promote pro-Armenia/Nagorno
Karabagh initiatives."
To date, three-hundred eighty (380) candidates responded to ARMENPAC's 2006
Congressional Candidate Questionnaire; visit www.armenpac.org
<http://www.armenpac.org/> to view the survey results and find out if your
candidates took the time to respond? Is your candidate interested in
fighting for Armenian-American issues? Of the candidates that responded,
ARMENPAC received two hundred seven (207) pledges to join the Congressional
Caucus on Armenian Issues. Already one of the largest caucuses in Congress,
increasing membership with passionate leaders will only enhance Armenia and
Nagorno Karabakh's relationship with the United States. Nine (9) of the
respondents do not support the reaffirmation of the Armenian Genocide, with
varying explanations. Does your candidate regard the Armenian Genocide as a
forgotten tragedy, better left in the past?

nationwide membership. ARMENPAC raises awareness of, and advocates for,
policies that help create peace, security and stability in the Caucasus
region. ARMENPAC provides financial support to federal officeholders,
