    SACRAMENTO-Some 200 activists traveled to Sacramento from all around
    California for the annual ANCA-WR Advocacy Day to commemorate
    the Armenian Genocide and advocate for issues of concern to
    Armenian-American community.

    Resolutions in both houses of the California State Legislature
    commemorating the Armenian Genocide were introduced and unanimously
    passed.

    Activists will hold meetings throughout the day with their elected
    officials to develop and strengthen relations of the Armenian community
    in California.

    "The sizable participation by our community, traveling hundreds of
    miles from around California to be in Sacramento, underscores the
    active involvement of Armenians in the processes which directly affect
    their lives," said Executive Director William Bairamian.

    More details forthcoming.
