/PanARMENIAN.Net/ United States Representative Tom Udall became
the 193rd congressman to cosponsor H. Res.106, which recognizes the
Armenian Genocide of 1915 in the Ottoman Empire. The Armenian National
Committee of America (ANCA) reports that Tom Udall represents northern
New Mexico and is currently serving his fifth term in the U.S. House
where he is a member of the influential Appropriations Committee.

"We are pleased that Congressman Udall has joined the growing community
of leaders who realize that it is time for the United States to speak
with moral clarity about the Armenian Genocide. For too long the United
States has been held hostage by a Turkish government and its proxies
bent on covering up this dark chapter of its history. Congressman
Udall’s cosponsorship reaffirms that there is no profit margin that
justifies remaining silent in the face of genocide," ANCA stated.
