/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Los Angeles Congressman Adam Schiff, D-Pasadena,
said he and several others in Congress are reviving the Armenian
Genocide resolution.
He said he has high hopes that the bill will pass Congress despite
fierce opposition from Turkey, and finally will be signed into law
by the nation's new president.
Speaking to 75 people from the Armenian National Committee Central
California Chapter in downtown Fresno, Schiff pledged to reintroduce
his Genocide resolution soon.
Schiff said virtually every member in Congress knows that the
Armenian Genocide is a fact of history, and that President Barack
Obama understands the issue.
"Obama spoke out against the firing of the ambassador," Schiff said,
referring to the dismissal of the American ambassador to Armenia for
publicly using the term Armenian genocide, The Fresno Bee reports.
