ANCA-WR Praises Congressman Howard Berman
-- San Fernando Valley Congressman Educates 434 Members of Congress on
Armenian Genocide
Los Angeles, CA - The Armenian National Committee of America - Western
Region and the East San Fernando Valley ANC Chapter jointly issued a
statement this week praising Congressman Howard Berman (D-CA-28) for
sending a Dear Colleague letter on the Armenian Genocide to all members
of the U.S. House of Representatives. Congressman Berman received an
"A" in the ANCA Congressional Report Card for 2006.
The letter to House members included a reference to a recent statement
issued by the respected International Association of Genocide Scholars
that encouraged House member to cosponsor H.Res.106, the Armenian
Genocide Resolution. In his Dear Colleague letter, Congressman Berman
writes, ".it is now time for Turkey to accept the reality of the
Armenian Genocide."
"Our community commends Congressman Berman for his leadership role in
educating Members of Congress on the Armenian Genocide," commented
ANCA-WR Executive Director Andrew Kzirian. "The fact that Congressman
Berman joined with the International Association of Genocide Scholars in
support of H.Res.106 is fresh proof of his longstanding commitment to
this human rights issue so important to tens of thousands of his
constituents in the 28th Congressional District," Kzirian added.
The Armenian National Committee of America is the largest and most
influential Armenian American grassroots political organization. Working
in coordination with a network of offices, chapters, and supporters
throughout the United States and affiliated organizations around the
world, the ANCA actively advances the concerns of the Armenian American
community on a broad range of issues.
