    'TONIGHT WE ARE ALL ARMENIANS!' NANCY PELOSI

    ArmInfo. "Tonight we are all Armenians!" House Speaker Nancy
    Pelosi (D-Calif.) declared as she began her address at the annual
    congressional commemoration of the Armenian Genocide on April 21.

    "We are tired of the story being told [about why Congress should
    not adopt an Armenian Genocide resolution] but we are not tired of
    fighting for the truth," Pelosi insisted as she spoke in front of
    some 200 people, mostly Armenian Americans.

    Speaker noted the importance of last month's House Foreign Affairs
    Committee vote on the Armenian Genocide resolution that "insisted
    on the truth" and expressed hope that the vote was "of some comfort"
    to Armenian Americans.

    Pelosi added that she and other supporters of affirmation would not
    rest until the federal government clearly recognizes the Armenian
    Genocide.
