    WASHINGTON, MAY 20, ARMENIANS TODAY - NOYAN TAPAN. Congressman Adam
    Schiff has introduced a bill urging the President and Secretary of
    State to call upon Turkey to immediately lift its ongoing blockade
    of Armenia. The "End the Turkish Blockade of Armenia Act" requires a
    report from the Secretary of State within 30 days of final passage
    that will outline steps taken by the U.S. to end Turkey's blockade
    of Armenia.

    "We need to step up pressure on Turkey to lift the draconian blockade
    of Armenia, permitting Armenian businesses to fully participate in
    the global economy and assisting Armenia's integration into Europe,"
    said Adam Schiff.

    Rep. Schiff is a member of the Congressional Caucus on Armenian
    Issues and the co-founder of the Democratic Study Group on National
    Security. He serves on the House Appropriations Committee, the House
    Judiciary Committee, and the House Permanent Select Committee on
    Intelligence.
