PROGRESS! Thank you, Rep. Frank Pallone and 86 bipartisan US Reps, for calling on the President to work for the 1) return of Artsakh refugees, 2) release of Armenian hostages, and 3) restoration of Christian churches.

Our task now is to turn these words into action, these principles into policy.

Ask your US Rep. to co-sign Titus-Smith letter asking Sec. Rubio to leverage Global Magnitsky Sanctions to get Azerbaijan to release Armenian hostages.

Enforcing Magnitsky Sanctions ramps-up pressure on Azerbaijan to release Armenian POWs.

Call on Pres. Trump to overrule Exim Bank's reckless decision to approve a $339,000,000 loan guarantee for Boeing's cargo aircraft sale to genocidal Azerbaijan.

These dual-use jets will facilitate the illegal flow of arms to Baku.

ANCA's letter to Marco Rubio sparks global laughter with unfounded claims ANCA’s letter to Marco Rubio bursted the world into laughter. To pay the due, such a farce can only be staged by Armenians, whom the great British writer George Orwell described with the words,

Aliyev-aligned media once again demonizing Armenians - this time as "sly and cunning."

There is - on the planet today - no more intense campaign of demonization of an entire ethnicity than Azerbaijan's state-sponsored hatred of Armenians.

Signs that California (54 electoral votes) is trending purple positions 965,000+ Armenian Americans as king-makers heading into the 2028 presidential race.

FYI: Republicans gained ground with Latinos, outperformed in urban areas, and flipped key counties.

Take action at anca.org/exim to ask Exim-Bank to block any/all US financing for the sale of Boeing cargo aircraft to genocidal Azerbaijan - an anti-Armenian regime that will use these jets to import lethal weaponry to kill more Christian Armenians.
