Congressman John P. Sarbanes (D-MD) has officially joined the
Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues this week, bringing the total
Caucus membership to 155, reports Armenian Assembly of America (AAA).
"I am honored to be a part of the Armenian Caucus," said Sarbanes,
who is also a cosponsor of the Armenian Genocide Resolution. "With H.
Res. 106 gaining momentum, I look forward to working with my Caucus
colleagues to continue raising awareness of this critical human
rights issue as well as other issues affecting the Armenian-American
community."
Sarbanes, who is currently serving his first term in office, is
a member of the Committee on Education and Labor, the Committee on
Natural Resources and the Committee on Oversight and Reform. He joins
Maryland Representatives Steny Hoyer (D-5), Christopher Van Hollen
(D-8) and Albert Wynn (D-4), in championing Armenian-American interests
on the Caucus. Sarbanes represents Maryland's Third Congressional
District, which includes portions of Anne Arundel County, Baltimore
City, Baltimore County and Howard County.
"We're very excited to have Congressman Sarbanes join this important
group, especially with so much progress being made on the Armenian
Genocide Resolution," said Annie Totah, a member of the Assembly's
Board of Trustees and a longtime Maryland resident. "Having worked
for decades with his father, Senator Paul Sarbanes, we are pleased
to continue a strong family tradition with Congressman Sarbanes."
"I am confident that he will bring his considerable talent and energies
to the Armenian Caucus and we thank him again for his strong support,"
she continued.
A Maryland native, the Congressman is an alumnus of the Woodrow Wilson
School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University
as well as a graduate of Harvard Law School.
