ARMENPAC Exclusive – GOVERNOR GEORGE DEUKMEJIAN ISSUES VIDEO MESSAGE TO
CONGRESS IN SUPPORT OF ARMENIAN GENOCIDE RESOLUTIONS (S.RES.106 and
H.RES.106)
Long Beach, California – George Deukmejian, the 35th Governor of the state
of California and ARMENPAC Honorary Committee Member, today issued a video
message to Congress and its staff in support of S.Res.106 and H.Res.106,
which are corresponding resolutions that call upon the President to ensure
that United States foreign policy reflects proper recognition of the
Armenian Genocide as documented in the United States records.
Right now, S.Res.106 and H.Res.106 are supported by more than half of the
members in each Chamber of Congress. Governor Deukmejian thanked those
Senators and Representatives who have lent their support to this important
human rights issue in the face of ongoing denial, and invited those who are
still considering this issue to view his video message which briefly
explains the historical facts of, and the reaffirmation efforts concerning,
the Armenian Genocide. Go to
