Pallone (D-NJ) referenced that a House vote on the Armenian Genocide Resolution may come as early as next week. (Video available at: https:\/\/youtu.be\/MoKdhIGmJhE)<\/p>\n<p>Representatives Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Gus Bilirakis (R-FL), lead authors of the Armenian Genocide Resolution (H.Res.296), ramped up efforts again last week to secure passage of the measure, arguing that Congressional silence of that crime undermines U.S. moral authority in confronting Turkey\u2019s atrocities today.<\/p>\n<p>In an October 18th  \u201cDear Colleague\u201d letter distributed throughout the U.S. House, Representatives Schiff and Bilirakis argued, \u201cAs we confront atrocities that are being committed in the present day, it weakens our standing and our moral clarity that the Congress has for too long been silent in declaring the events of 1915 as a genocide. As Turkish bombs fall on Kurdish cities, extremist groups backed by Turkey commit war crimes, and hundreds of thousands of civilians flee for their lives, it is surely not lost on Turkish leaders that for decades their campaign of lobbying and bullying has silenced the Congress from the simple act of speaking the truth about the events of 1915.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Representatives Schiff and Bilirakis then called on their congressional colleagues to, \u201cto join us to make clear that the United States will never be complicit in genocide denial, and that we will call out the atrocities of today and those of a century ago. As we confront continuing mass atrocities around the world, and as we work feverishly to restore calm and end the fighting in Northern Syria, Congress\u2019s silence about the Armenian Genocide of a century ago undermines our moral standing. It must end.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a very personal and powerful \u201cDear Colleague\u201d sent to U.S. House members earlier today, Congresswoman Anna Eshoo (D-CA), the only Assyrian-Armenian member of Congress, stated \u201cBetween 1915 and 1923, 1.5 million Armenians and hundreds of thousands of Greeks, Assyrians, Chaldeans, Syriacs, Arameans, Maronites, and other Christians were brutally and systematically slaughtered at the hands of the Ottoman Empire. Members of my own family were among those murdered. My mother escaped with my grandmother from Armenia, and my father, an Assyrian Christian, was driven from the Middle East. Both carried the terror of the atrocities of the Ottoman Turks for a lifetime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Armenian Genocide Resolution (H.Res.296), introduced in April, 2019, is a bi-partisan measure which locks in permanent U.S. recognition and commemoration of the Armenian Genocide, ends U.S. complicity in Turkey\u2019s denial, and promotes public education regarding the crime as a genocide prevention tool.  Senators Robert Menendez (D-NJ) and Ted Cruz (R-TX) have spearheaded the Senate version of the resolution (S.Res.150). Over 110 U.S. Representatives and more than 18 Senators are cosponsors of the measures.  The full list of current cosponsors of both measures is available at: <a href=\"https:\/\/anca.org\/ag-cosponsors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/anca.org\/ag-cosponsors\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1571864580073000&amp;usg=AFQjCNFRFgXFKiqmRbsmZdgWWvgjJiGfng\">https:\/\/anca.org\/ag-<wbr \/>cosponsors\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>#####<\/p>\n<p><u><b>Background:<\/b><\/u><\/p>\n<p>The Armenian Genocide was the centrally planned and systematically executed slaughter of the Armenian people, carried out by the Ottoman Turkish Government from 1915-1923. The Greek and Assyrian \/ Chaldean \/ Syriac communities suffered the same fate, with over 2.5 million Christians killed in that time period. April 24th is the international day of commemoration of the Armenian Genocide.<\/p>\n<p>The United States embarked on an unprecedented international humanitarian campaign, mandated by Congress in 1916 through the establishment of Near East Relief, saving over 130,000 orphans and some 1 million survivors of the Armenian Genocide by providing assistance valued at over $2.5 billion in current dollars.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. first recognized the Armenian Genocide in 1951 through a filing which was included in the International Court of Justice (ICJ) Report titled: \u201cReservations to the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.\u201d The specific reference to the Armenian Genocide appears on page 25 of the ICJ Report: \u201cThe Genocide Convention resulted from the inhuman and barbarous practices which prevailed in certain countries prior to and during World War II, when entire religious, racial and national minority groups were threatened with and subjected to deliberate extermination. The practice of genocide has occurred throughout human history. The Roman persecution of the Christians, the Turkish massacres of Armenians, the extermination of millions of Jews and Poles by the Nazis are outstanding examples of the crime of genocide.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>President Ronald Reagan reaffirmed the Armenian Genocide in 1981. The U.S. House of Representatives adopted legislation on the Armenian Genocide in 1975, 1984 and 1996. Forty-nine U.S. states have recognized the Armenian Genocide through resolution or proclamation.<\/p>\n<p>[modula
