Rep. Schiff submits more Armenian Genocide Survival Stories into Congressional Record

U.S. Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA) submitted additional stories from survivors of the Armenian Genocide to be included in the Congressional Record – the second set of many submissions into the national record as part of the new Armenian Genocide Congressional Record Project.

“I submitted three more survivors’ stories of the Armenian Genocide as part of a greater effort to make their experiences part of the national record,” Rep. Schiff said. “This is another in a series of submissions to help document the harrowing stories of the survivors, preserve their accounts, and to help educate the Members of Congress now and in the future on the necessity of recognizing the Armenian Genocide.”

The stories were submitted by Kay Mouradian, EdD, Professor Emerita Education, Los Angeles Community Colleges, and by Katia Kusherian, whose mother is 95 years old and also contributed by providing details included in the stories.
