    APRIL GENOCIDE PREVENTION MONTH

    ARMENIAN ASSEMBLY VIDEO URGES CONTINUED CONGRESSIONAL ACTION

    Washington, DC - "With April designated as Genocide prevention month,
    now is the time to make certain that this April 24, the Armenian
    Genocide is unequivocally affirmed by President Barack Obama," said
    Armenian Assembly of America (Assembly) Executive Director Bryan
    Ardouny. "We encourage activists and all people of good will to take
    action to ensure that President Obama and Congress affirm the truth."

    In January 2009, with the start of the new Administration and Congress,
    the Assembly launched a website, ArmenianGenocideAffirmation.com,
    specifically dedicated to U.S. affirmation of the Armenian Genocide. The
    website affords visitors with the opportunity to send a letter to
    President Barack Obama or their respective Member of Congress, join the
    Assembly's facebook group or become an Ambassador of Affirmation, as
    well as view our latest video messages.

    Last month, H. Res. 252, the Armenian Genocide Resolution, was
    introduced shortly after the Assembly's National Advocacy Conference, by
    Reps. Adam Schiff (D-CA), George Radanovich (R-CA) and Congressional
    Caucus on Armenian Issues Co-Chairmen, Frank Pallone, Jr. (D-NJ) and
    Mark Kirk (R-IL). It currently boasts 88 co-sponsors.

    Established in 1972, the Armenian Assembly of America is the largest
    Washington-based nationwide organization promoting public understanding
    and awareness of Armenian issues. The Assembly is a 501(c) (3)
    tax-exempt membership organization.
