ANCA WR – Advocating the Armenian Cause in the CA State Capitol

On Monday, April 20, 2015, the Armenian National Committee of
America-Western Region (ANCA-WR), the California State Legislature,
and California activists will join to commemorate the 100th
Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide at the State Capitol in
Sacramento.

Hundreds of dedicated supporters across California are expected will
gather for Advocacy Day to educate and motivate public officials on
the legislative process and on issues significant to Armenian
Americans who live across the State. This year, the commemoration of
the 100th Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide will begin with
ceremonies on both the California Assembly and Senate floors, where
legislators will deliver remarks about the Genocide. A vote on the
Armenian Genocide resolution will follow. Also, throughout the date,
members will meet with their legislators to advocate current issues of
interest to Armenian Americans. “The annual Armenian Genocide
commemoration reaffirms California’s commitment to combating genocide
and its denial, while providing Armenian Americans an opportunity to
connect with representatives and engage the political process,” said
Raffi L. Kassabian, ANCA-WR Board Member.

For individuals/groups who are interested in participating from the
Los Angeles area, bus transportation to and from Sacramento as well as
lodging will be provided. The bus will depart on Sunday, April 19,
2015 at 9AM and will return the following evening on Monday, April 20,
2015.
