On a recent broadcast of The Chai95 Radio Hour with Adam Taxin, on WWDB 860 AM in Philadelphia, Republican Pennsylvania U.S. Senate candidate Sam Rohrer stated that, if elected, he would be willing to co-sponsor a Senate resolution that recognized the extermination of up to 1.5 million Armenian Christians during the period from 1915 to 1923 as Genocide, The Examiner reports.

Chai95 Radio Hour host Taxin asked Rohrer, a nine-term former Pennsylvania State Representative from the Reading area: "Would you as a Senator co-sponsor a resolution [to recognize] the Armenian Genocide," to which Rohrer responded unequivocally: "Yes, I would. Absolutely."
