“I also would like to join in welcoming Archbishop Barsamian to the House of Representatives and thank him for his words of inspiration that he offered here in the House just a few minutes ago. Hopefully it will serve as some guidance when our good colleague, the gentleman from California [Mr. Lehman] leads us tonight in remembrance of the Armenian genocide, just as last week we recognized the Holocaust of European Jews. This Sunday is National Armenian Remembrance Day to help the world to never forget the horrific genocide against humanity that took place between 1915 and 1923 that left 1.5 million Armenian victims.”
