    CROWLEY HAILS COMMITTEE APPROVAL OF ARMENIAN GENOCIDE RESOLUTION

    Oct 11 2007

    Washington -- US Congressman Joseph Crowley (D-NY), a member of the
    House Committee on Foreign Affairs, commended his colleagues on the
    panel for approving the Affirmation of the United States Record on
    the Armenian Genocide Resolution. The legislation cleared committee
    by a vote of 27 to 21.

    "The world must never forget the genocide that occurred against
    Armenians 92 years ago," Crowley said. "Today, the House Committee on
    Foreign Affairs voted - with my support - to ensure that we never do.

    By passing this resolution, we are finally officially recognizing
    this heinous chapter in our world history and condemning the murder
    of 1.5 million innocent."

    Crowley, a co-sponsor of this resolution, has called for official
    condemnation of the annihilation of 1.5 million Armenians that began
    on April 24, 1915 and for recognition that the tragic killings were
    genocide.
