JOHN COLBERT FOR CONGRESS;
Original Author of Armenian Genocide Bill Asks Colbert to Take Over Fight
Rep. George Radanovich (R-Mariposa) today endorsed Republican
candidate and former deputy sheriff John Colbert and asked him to take
over his role as the top Republican leading the fight to pass an
Armenian Genocide Resolution in the House of Representatives.
"I've met with John Colbert and am convinced he is the right person to
continue the fight on behalf of Armenians all over the world who are
demanding that our government recognize the existence of the Armenian
Genocide that took place in the last century," said Rep. Radanovich,
who is retiring from Congress at the end of this year. "I know John
Colbert to be a man of principle and integrity who wants to see
justice done," added Radanovich.
"It means a great deal to me to know that someone who has been so
respected and admired by our Armenian communities throughout
California and the country would entrust me to take over his fight on
their behalf," said Colbert. "I am grateful for his trust in me and my
commitment to the Armenian community to see that this resolution is
brought back for a long-overdue vote," he added.
Colbert will be the Republican challenger to Rep. Adam Schiff who has
been the lead Democrat to get the Armenian Genocide Resolution passed
by the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives.
John has dedicated his life to serving his country and improving the
quality of life for Americans through his work, initiatives,
technology and expertise. He served honorably in the United States
Army. As a hard-charging investigator with the Los Angeles County
Sheriff Department, his top arrest record and awards promoted him to
work complex white-collar crimes and helped him establish one of the
world's first computer forensic crime labs. As a high-tech
businessman, John led a Pasadena-based company that specialized in
putting the world's worst criminals behind bars, including well-known
terrorists, child sexual criminals, corporate espionage and hacking
attacks.
