    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The highly regarded and influential chairman of
    the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Senator Joseph Biden (D-DE),
    a longtime supporter of U.S. recognition of the Armenian Genocide,
    officially announced his support yesterday for the Armenian Genocide
    Resolution (S.Res.106), reported the Armenian National Committee of
    America (ANCA).

    "Armenian Americans - and all those committed to forever ending
    the cycle of genocide - welcome Chairman Biden's principled support
    for Congressional reaffirmation of the Armenian Genocide, and thank
    him for his years of leadership in helping to put America back on
    the right side of this compelling moral and foreign policy issue,"
    said ANCA Executive Director Aram Hamparian. Senator Biden's decision
    yesterday brings the official Senate cosponsor list to 34.

    October 10, with a vote 27 to 21 the U.S. House Committee on Foreign
    Affairs passed the Armenian Genocide Resolution, H.Res.106, which
    was introduced by Representative Adam Schiff January 30, 2007.

    However, the resolution did not reach the House floor.
