Last week, Congressman Jim Costa (D- CA) of Fresno issued a strong
statement commemorating the recent anniversary of Azerbaijan's ethnic
cleansing of its Armenian community in Sumgait in February 1988,
ANCA reported.
He joins with a bipartisan group of other Members of Congress in
commemorating the massacres, including colleagues from the California
Congressional delegation such as Reps. Anna Eshoo (D), Howard Berman
(D), Brad Sherman (D), Judy Chu (D), and Adam Schiff (D).
"With Congressman Costa joining his colleagues in commemorating the
Sumgait massacres, he adds yet another principled voice to the chorus
of legislators who have publicly expressed support for human rights,
democracy, and the peaceful resolution of regional disputes," said
ANCA Executive Director Aram Hamparian.
