Riverside Armenian American Community Thanks Congressman Ken Calvert
(R-CA-44) for
Cosponsorship of H. Res. 106
Riverside, CA - Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) activist
Ana Boyajian met with Congressman Ken Calvert's district office staff
representative Bill Essayli in the Congressman's Riverside office on
April 12, 2007. The meeting was held in order to thank Congressman
Calvert for his decision to sign on as a cosponsor for H.Res.106.
Congressman Ken Calvert represents the 44th District of Southern
California which encompasses western Riverside County and parts of
Orange County. Calvert is a member of the Armed Services Committee and
the Resources Committee.
Ana Boyajian worked with the Armenian National Committee of America
Western Region (ANCA-WR) office to organize a letter writing campaign to
Congressman Calvert during January of this year to urge him to cosponsor
H. Res. 106. During the course of the campaign she collected over one
hundred letters from constituents informing the Congressman of the
importance of the issue. The campaign was very successful and as a
result Calvert joined over 150 of his colleagues and signed on as an
original cosponsor to the resolution.
Boyajian and Essayli spoke regarding the Armenian Genocide and the
importance of the resolution to the Armenian community. Boyajian also
told Essayli how much ANCA activists appreciate Calvert's and his
colleagues' support for the Resolution.
"The ANC and its local advocates welcome these opportunities to build
strong ties with our elected officials," said Haig Hovsepian, ANCA-WR
Community Relations Director. "The Riverside area Armenian American
community is happy to let Congressman Calvert know that his support on
this important issue is important to them and appreciated."
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.
