The Armenian National Committee of America - Western Region (ANCA-WR)
is reporting that an internet poll conducted over a two week period
has shown that over 85% of the Armenian American community is closely
following the Armenian Genocide resolution (H. Res. 106) currently
pending in the U.S. Congress. The poll was conducted in late May and
early June and included the participation of 848 respondents.
Individuals who participated in the internet poll were asked if they
were following the progress of H. Res. 106 which is pending before
the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
The bill, which was introduced on January 30, 2007 by Congressman
Adam Schiff enjoys support from over 195 Members of the US House
of Representatives.
Over 85% (731 individuals) of respondents conveyed that they are
closely monitoring the status of the bill. In addition, a resounding
97% of respondents shared that they would not vote for a Member of
Congress who did not support the Armenian Genocide resolution.
"We are pleased that so many Armenian American voters are educated
and focused on the Armenian Genocide resolution," commented ANCA-WR
Executive Director Andrew Kzirian. "An educated and united community
is a strong community. Clearly, ANC chapters in California, Arizona,
Nevada and elsewhere across the western United States have done a
successful job in educating, voter by voter, our community on the
status of the Armenian Genocide resolution," Kzirian added.
