Tom Udall became 193rd congressman who is in favor of recognizing Armenian Genocide

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.
