PanARMENIAN.Net - Thousands of Armenians from the United States and throughout the world are expected to watch the live internet Webcast this Thursday, September 15th of a key Congressional panel's consideration of Armenian Genocide legislation, reported the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA).

In October of 2000, the panel voted 24 to 11 to approve the Armenian Genocide Resolution, but the measure was eventually

withdrawn from consideration only minutes before it was to go before the full House of Representatives. To watch the live Webcast, visit the http://wwwc.house.gov/international_relations website of the U.S. House International Relations Committee at 10.30 a.m. Washington time and click on "Live webcast of meeting."
