Congressman Mark Udall's bid to be elected to the U.S. Senate this
November has been endorsed by the Armenian National Committee -
Political Action Committee (ANC-PAC), the nation's largest and most
active Armenian American political action committee. In endorsing
Udall, the ANC-PAC acknowledges Udall's efforts as a powerful advocate
for his Armenian American constituents in Congress. The Congressman's
District stretches across much of Denver's northwestern suburban
communities, including Boulder, and is home to a vibrant community
of Armenian American families and voters.
"The Armenian American community has a great friend in Mark Udall,"
stated ANC-PAC supporter and Boulder resident Jirair Christianian. "I
urge all Armenian Americans in Colorado to vote on November 4th
for Mark Udall. I greatly look forward to working closely with the
Congressman after he is elected to the United States Senate where he
can continue to expand and broaden his already strong track record
on human rights," Christianian added.
Mark Udall has a proven and solid track record of supporting important
Armenian issues in the U.S. Congress. Udall is a member of the
Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues and is an original cosponsor
of H.Res. 106, the resolution reaffirming the United States record
on the Armenian Genocide. He is also a supporter of H. Res. 102,
a resolution condemning the assassination of human rights advocate
and outspoken defender of freedom of the press, Turkish Armenian
journalist Hrant Dink. Udall has signed every letter to President Bush
urging him to recognize the Armenian Genocide since 2002 and signed
a letter to Secretary of State Rice defending Ambassador John Evans
for speaking truthfully about the Armenian Genocide and inquiring
about the involvement of the Turkish officials in his firing. He also
cosponsored the South Caucasus Integration and Open Railroads Act (H.R.
3361), which prohibited any U.S. financing of railroads in the region
which would exclude Armenia.
Congressman Mark Udall was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives
in 1998 with the full support of the Armenian American community. He
presently serves on the House Armed Services Committee, the House
Committee on Science and Technology and the House Natural Resources
Committee. Udall also serves as Chairman of the Committee on Science
Space and Aeronautics Subcommittee and as co-chairman of House
Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Caucus.
Udall is also a member of the Congressional Human Rights Caucus.
