    Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank) with ANCA interns

    WASHINGTON-Today, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank) met with several
    interns from the Armenian National Committee of America in his
    Washington D.C. office. The interns discussed their work at the ANCA
    and priorities for the Armenian-American community, both in Congress
    and at home. They were also given a chance to ask Rep. Schiff questions
    about his work in Congress and to suggest ideas for legislation.

    "I am always pleased to see young people in our country engaging
    in public service and the legislative process, and am especially
    impressed when they demonstrate such enthusiasm and commitment. The
    experiences and professional development that internships provide
    will position these students well for their future endeavors."

    "We are always pleased to create opportunities for young Armenians to
    exchange ideas, discuss issues, and explore careers in public service
    with Members of Congress and other key players in the Washington
    policy-making community," said ANCA Legislative Affairs Director
    Raffi Karakashian.

    "Our internships - as well as our 'Capital Gateway' public policy
    job-placement program - are empowering a new generation of talented
    and devoted Armenains with the knowledge, experience, and confidence
    to lead our community and our cause into the future. As always,
    the best investment we can ever make is in our youth."

    "I am proud to represent a large and vibrant Armenian community,
    which has so enriched our nation in so many fields," Rep. Schiff
    said. "As a friend of the Armenian community, I will continue working
    hard to pursue recognition for the 1.5 million victims of the Armenian
    Genocide, as well as policies to ensure a better life for the Armenian
    people in our communities and throughout the world."
