/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Pro-Armenian lawmakers in the U.S. House of
Representatives, the lower chamber of Congress, are preparing to
introduce later this month a fresh resolution calling on the United
States to formally recognize the 1915 incidents in the Ottoman Empire
as Genocide, the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) told
PanARMENIAN.Net.
The bill will be introduced by four senior members of the Armenian
Caucus in the House of Representatives, Adam Schiff, a democrat from
California, Frank Pallone, a democrat from New Jersey, George
Radanovich, a republican from California, and Mark Kirk, a republican
from Illinois, the sources said.
The pro-Armenian lobby is presently working to garner the support of a
large number of lawmakers as cosponsors for the resolution.
