TURKEY'S LOBBYISTS ARE TURNING UP THE HEAT

Turkey's multi-million dollar lobbyists are working overtime to pressure Speaker Pelosi and our Congressional supporters to remove the Armenian Genocide Resolution from Foreign Affairs Committee consideration on October 10th at 1:30pm.

Here is the latest:

  • It was announced yesterday that Rep. Russ Carnahan (D-MO), who succeeded Turkey's mouthpiece, former Congressman Dick Gephardt, withdrew his support for the Resolution.
  • Turkey's lobbyists distributed 440 copies of the now infamous letter by eight former U.S. Secretaries of State, expressing opposition to H.Res.106 -- the Armenian Genocide Resolution.
