GLENDLE-The Armenian National Committee of America, Western Region,
announced today its endorsement of Los Angeles City Councilwoman
Janice Hahn as she runs for United States Congress in California's
36th District.
In her meeting with ANCA activists and staff, Councilwoman Hahn showed
considerable understanding and concern for issues important to the
Armenian American community in the 36th District and throughout the
United States.
"I am deeply honored by the Armenian National Committee of America,
Western Region's endorsement. As the strongest, most politically
active organization in the Armenian American community, I am pleased
to have the support of the ANCA-WR," said Hahn.
She continued, "When I am elected to Congress from the 36th District,
I promise that I will be a champion of the Armenian community by
advocating for Congressional recognition of the Armenian Genocide,
the establishment of a U.S. - Armenia trade office, and the protection
of the right to self-determination for the people of Nagorno-Karabakh."
The 36th Congressional District race is significant because the winner
will be replacing former Congresswoman and noted Genocide denier,
Jane Harman.
ANCA-WR Chairman Andrew Kzirian commented on the endorsement: "Our
decision to endorse Janice Hahn, a longtime friend of the Armenian
community in Los Angeles, is to ensure that the integrity of the 36th
Congressional seat is upheld."
"We truly believe that Councilwoman Hahn is the individual in this race
who is not only committed to supporting Armenian American issues but
also of bringing them to the fore once she is elected to the House
of Representatives."
The special election for this seat will be taking place on May 17. For

The Armenian National Committee of America-Western Region is the
largest and most influential Armenian American grassroots advocacy
organization in the Western United States. Working in coordination
with a network of offices, chapters, and supporters throughout the
Western United States and affiliated organizations around the country,
the ANCA-WR advances the concerns of the Armenian American community
on a broad range of issues.
