Armenian Genocide Resolution may be put on vote in mid-January
The Armenian Genocide Resolution (H. Res. 106) may be put on a vote in the plenary session of the U.S. House of Representatives in January 2008, Democrat Brad Sherman declared after a meeting with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
"The bill will be brought to a vote, when we have the support of the necessary number of Congressmen. Possibly, the voting will take place in January 2008," Sherman said.
Speaker Pelosi had recently reconsidered her decision to put the bill on a vote before November 22 due to pressure from the Bush administration.
The resolution introduced by Rep. Adam Schiff is supported by 219 Congressmen.
