Important Rally

Below are the specifics about the rally that is taking place this Friday at 11:00 in front of the US Federal Building.

This Rally offers a unique opportunity to voice our concerns to the US government about the positions it has taken on key Armenian issues. Besides not acknowledging the Armenian Genocide, the current Administration and State Department have taken a very anti Armenian position on the Kharabagh conflict. While it may not appear to be the case, we are currently in an emergency situation. If we do not voice our concerns things may turn for the worst in the very foreseeable future.

As Armenian Americans we have a right and a responsibility to be heard.
