The Armenian National Committee of America's (ANCA) 'Countdown to
Erdogan' moved from the internet to phone lines on Thursday, November
12 with the launch of a National Call-In Day to encourage Senators
to cosponsor and work for the adoption of the Armenian Genocide
Resolution, S.Res.316.
"The strong early response by Armenian Americans - and also a growing
number of non-Armenians - to our 'Countdown to Erdogan' campaign has
really broadened our community's civic engagement, with thousands
of WebMails already being sent to support both the adoption of the
Armenian Genocide Resolution and decisive U.S. action to end the
genocide in Darfur," said ANCA Executive Director Aram Hamparian. "We
now urge team members to pick up the phone and call their Senators
to thank those who have already cosponsored the initiative and urge
others to take immediate action."
Since Monday, in addition to contacting their Senators, activists
have urged President Obama to move beyond rhetoric and take decisive
action to end the Darfur genocide, participating in a WebMail
campaign initiated by Africa Action. Anti-genocide activists were
also encouraged to watch a special live broadcast of Save Darfur's
interview with Special Envoy to Sudan Scott Gration and NSC Assistant
Secretary on Multi-Lateral Affairs Samantha Power on the current
situation in Darfur.
