ANCA Chairman Ken Hachikian: It's always the right time to do the right thing
A bipartisan majority today rejected Turkey's gag rule, setting the
stage for Speaker Pelosi and the full U.S. House to properly
commemorate the Armenian Genocide. The Committee's message was simple
yet powerful: Turkey doesn't get a vote or a veto in the U.S.
Congress.
As Americans of Armenian heritage, it holds great meaning to see our
nation move one step closer to putting the painful lessons of the
Armenian Genocide to work in helping to end the cycle of genocide, in
Darfur and around the world.
A moral foreign policy has always been among our strongest assets and
one of the greatest forces for good in the world. Despite Turkey's
last minute threats and intimidation, Chairman Berman and the House
Foreign Affairs Committee have shown that it's always the right time
to do the right thing.
