/PanARMENIAN.Net/ On Tuesday, April 24, 2007, the Armenian National
Committee of Wisconsin, State Representatives Mark Honadel, Jeff
Stone and Robin Vos, and State Senators Mary Lazich, John Lehman,
and Jeff Plale are hosting a reception and program to commemorate the
92nd Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. This event will be held
from 9:45 - 10:45 am in the Assembly Parlor at the Wisconsin State
Capitol, 2 E. Main St, Madison, WI 53702. The program will feature
remarks from Representative Robin Vos, Senator John Lehman and Zohrab
Khaligian representing the Armenian National Committee of Wisconsin,
the ANCA reports.
The event hosted annually by the ANC of WI gives the Armenian American
community an opportunity to thank the members of the Wisconsin State
Assembly and State Senate for adopting Armenian Genocide Resolution,
which designates April 24 of each year as "Wisconsin Day of Remembrance
for the Armenian Genocide of 1915 to 1923" and to continue to educate
and promote awareness of Armenia and Armenian issues, particularly the
Armenian Genocide. The State Assembly adopted Assembly Resolution 42
(AR 42) on May 2, 2000 while the State Senate adopted Senate Resolution
14 on March 7, 2002, thereby reaffirming the Armenian Genocide as a
fact of history.
