Peter Koutoujian
LOS ANGELES-Supporters of the Armenian National Committee - Political
Action Committee gathered on Sunday, August 11 to support the
congressional campaign of Peter Koutoujian.
The ANC-PAC and its many supporters in Massachusetts and across
the nation strongly support Koutoujian, who is running in a special
election in the 5th Congressional District in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts. The special congressional election, which was made
necessary because longtime Congressman Ed Markey (D-MA) was elected
to the U.S. Senate last year, features a crowded field in which
Koutoujian is among the leading candidates.
"Peter Koutoujian is a brilliant example of the American Dream,"
remarked an ANC-PAC spokesperson. "The ANC-PAC believes Peter will
bring integrity and vision to the U.S. Congress. We are supporting
Peter because he will convey his wealth of experience as a policymaker
to the U.S. House of Representatives in Washington, DC. His current
position as the Sheriff of Middlesex County, his long tenure as
a member of the Massachusetts Legislature and his past post as
a prosecutor with the Middlesex District Attorney's Office are
emblematic of the fact that Peter's judgment and character is just
what is needed in Congress these days," added the ANC-PAC spokesperson.
The ANC-PAC is proud of Peter Koutoujian's track record on Armenian
American issues and confident that he will apply his support for
human rights when he is elected to join the 113th Congress. From
issues like securing justice with respect to the Armenian Genocide,
to safeguarding the freedom and liberty for the people of Artsakh,
Koutoujian is a strong proponent of issues of concern to human rights
advocates not only in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, but also
across the United States.
As a member of the Massachusetts Legislature, Koutoujian crafted
legislation that led to the creation of the Armenian Heritage Park
(AHP) in downtown Boston. The AHP, which is visited by hundreds of
thousands of visitors every year, includes among other elements a
sculpture that is dedicated to lives lost during the Armenian Genocide
and all other crimes against humanity.
The ANC-PAC is a non-partisan federally registered political action
committee established to support campaign committees for Members of
Congress who share the values of the Armenian American community. The
ANC-PAC is at the forefront of efforts to ensure that the voice of the
Armenian American community is clearly heard in our nation's capital.
The ANC-PAC continues a century old tradition of Armenian American
engagement on the public policy issues facing national political
leaders, both in the U.S. Congress and the White House.
