MEMBERS.
AS VICE CHAIR OF OUR JEWISH
CAUCUS IT'S WITH A PARTICULARLY.
HEAVY HEART THAT I ASK FOR
PERMISSION TO READ THE WORLD THE
WORDS OF.
MY PEOPLE'S ARCH ENEMY ITSELF
HITLER WITHOUT OBJECTION.
HE.
ON AUGUST TWENTY SECOND NINETEEN
THIRTY NINE WHEN. ANNOUNCING HIS
INVASION OF POLAND.
TALKED OF.
THE FACT THAT.
GEN GETS KIND HAD LEAD MILLIONS
OF AND OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN TO
SLAUGHTER WITH PREMEDITATION.
AND A HAPPY HEART HISTORY SEES
IN HIM.
SOLELY THE FOUNDER OF THE STATE
IT'S A MATTER OF INDIFFERENCE TO
ME. THAT A WEEK WESTERN EUROPEAN
CIVILIZATION.
WILL SAY ABOUT ME.
I'VE ISSUED THE COMMANDED ALL
HAVE ANYBODY WHO ENTERS BUT ONE
WORD OF CRITICISM EXECUTED BY A
FIRING SQUAD. THAT OUR WAR AIM
DOES NOT CONSIST IN REACHING
CERTAIN LINES BUT IN THE
PHYSICAL DESTRUCTION. OF THE
ENEMY ACCORDINGLY I HAVE PLACED
MY DEATH HAND FORMATIONS IN
READINESS FOR THE PRESENT. ONLY
IN THE EAST WITH ORDERS TO THEM
TO SEND TO DEATH MERCILESSLY AND
WITHOUT COMPASSION. MEN WOMEN
AND CHILDREN OF POLISH
DERIVATION AND LANGUAGE. ONLY
THUS SHALL WE GAIN THE LIVING
SPACE THE LEBENSRAUM WHICH WE
NEED.
WHO AFTER ALL SPEAKS TODAY?
OF THE ANNIHILATION OF THE
ARMENIANS.
MEMBERS THE WORLD'S.
INABILITY TO STAND UP AND SPEAK
OUT.
AGAINST THE GENOCIDE OF THE
ARMENIANS.
OPEN THE DOOR TO SO MANY.
TAX OF VIOLATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS
THROUGHOUT THE TWENTIETH
CENTURY.
AND THE MOST DRAMATIC EXAMPLE
BEING THAT OF THE WHOLE COSTS
THAT WE COMMEMORATED LAST WEEK.
THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE WAS THE
ORIGINAL SIN OF THE TWENTIETH
CENTURY.
IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE MUST.
REMEMBER.
I CONTINUE TO BE SO APPALLED
THAT THE TURKISH GOVERNMENT HAS
JUST BEEN UNABLE.
TO ADMIT.
AND APOLOGIZE THAT'S AT LEAST
ONE THING THAT DID THAT ONE OF
THE FEW ACTS OF COMFORT TO THE
JEWISH PEOPLE HAVE THAT THE
GERMAN GOVERNMENT HAS TAKEN FULL
RESPONSIBILITY.
FOR THE ACTS OF THEIR PREVIOUS
GOVERNMENT IN THIS CASE WE HAVE.
A GOVERNMENT THAT COULD EVEN
APOLOGIZE FOR THE ACTS OF A
FORMER GOVERNMENT IT WASN'T
EVEN.
THE MODERN TURKISH REPUBLIC
THAT.
DID THIS AND YET THEY HAVE BEEN
UNABLE TO DO SO AND I THINK SO
MUCH THAT HAS TO DO WITH THE
FACT THAT WITHIN THEIR OWN
COUNTRY. THERE IS A CONCERTED
EFFORT.
TO TEACH THE YOUNG PEOPLE A
DISTORTED NARRATIVE OF HISTORY
AN TO DOWNPLAY. THE STORY OF THE
ARMENIANS
IT'S AN EXAMPLE OF THE
IMPORTANCE OF FREE SPEECH.
OF OPEN DIALOGUE IT'S SOMETHING
THAT INCREASINGLY IS.
IS.
DIMINISHING IN IN MODERN TURKEY
TODAY.
AND SOMETHING I LAMENT AND I
JUST WANNA STAND IN GREAT
SOLIDARITY WITH OUR BROTHERS AND
SISTERS FROM THE ARMENIAN
COMMUNITY WHO HAVE BEEN HOLDING
COMMEMORATIONS THROUGHOUT
CALIFORNIA. THIS WEEKEND AND
NEXT.
IT IS THE ATROCIOUS PIECE OF OF
HISTORY AND I'M SO GLAD THAT WE
ARE COMMEMORATING TODAY.
THANK YOU SENATOR ALLEN SENATOR
WILK.
THANK YOU MADAM PRESIDENT
MEMBERS OF I WANT TO THANK MY.
MY COLLEAGUE MY ESTEEMED
COLLEAGUE FROM PASADENA FOR
DOING THIS RESOLUTION AND AS A
MEMBER OF THE ARMENIAN
LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS I RISE IN
SUPPORT OF SR. ONE OH SEVEN
COMMEMORATING THE HUNDRED THIRD
ANNIVERSARY OF THE ARMENIAN
GENOCIDE.
IN TWO THOUSAND AND EIGHT THEN
SENATOR BARACK OBAMA STATED THE
ARMENIAN GENOCIDE IS NOT AN
ACCUSATION. OUR PERSONAL OPINION
OR POINT OF VIEW. IT IS A WIDELY
DOCUMENTED FACTS SUPPORTED BY
OVERWHELMING BODY OF HISTORICAL
EVIDENCE.
BUT BEHIND THOSE HISTORICAL
FACTS ARE REAL PEOPLE WITH REAL
STORIES THAT NEED TO BE TOLD.
LAST YEAR I HAD THE INCREDIBLE
HONOR OF TELLING THIS THE IS
STORY OF MY WIFE FINANCES.
GREYED OUT ANTS AWNING WHO
WITNESSED THE MURDER OF HER
HUSBAND THE STARVATION OF HER
CHILDREN.
DURING A DESERT DEATH MARCH AND
HE WAS LEFT FOR DEAD IN A PILE
OF CORPSES.
HOWEVER SHE FAKED HER DEATH PIC
SKATED EVENTUALLY MADE HER WAY
TO AMERICA TO BE UNITED WITH HER
TWO BROTHERS.
TODAY LIKE DO YOU WANNA TAKE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO TALK ABOUT MY
FATHER IN LAW LARGER NEKE SAVOY
IN.
HIS FAMILY HELP FROM THE BOND
REGION OF ARMENIA IF ACT NSA HIS
NAME TO OF. IS NAMED AFTER.
OF BON.
BUDGET NEEDS PARENTS WERE
FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO ESCAPE THE
GENOCIDE IN THE IMMIGRATED TO
RUSSIA.
SO I SENATE WAS BORN IN RUSSIA
BUT IT'S FAMILY WAS DRIVEN FROM
RUSSIA FROM THE BOSTICK WROTE
REVOLUTION. IN THE FAMILY SOUGHT
REFUGE IN A TEHRAN IRAN.
THAT EIGHTEEN ARSENIC CAME BY
BOAT TO AMERICA TO ATTEND
COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY WHERE HE
REGISTERED AT ELLIS ISLAND WHEN
YOU REGISTERED AT ELLIS ISLAND
THE IMMIGRATION OFFICER COULD
NOT SPELL ARGININE. SO WE ASK
HIM TO TAKE ON AN AMERICAN NAME.
AT THAT TIME HARRY TRUMAN WAS
PRESIDENT SO HE REGISTERED AS
HARRY A SAFARI IN.
LIKE MANY IMMIGRANTS HERE YOU
HAVE A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING WHAT
IT IS TO BE AN AMERICAN. PINTO
THAN THOSE BORN HERE HE LEFT
ARMENIA AND AMERICA EQUALLY IN
FACT HILLARY I MEEKLY SIGNED UP
FOR OUR FOR ROTC PROGRAM AT
COLUMBIA.
BUT HE WAS DISMISSED FROM THE
PROGRAM AFTER THE SIX WEEK WHEN
THE TRAINING OFFICER REALIZE
THAT HE WAS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.
I HEAR EVENTUALLY RELATE
RELOCATED TO BOSTON.
A WHERE HE EARNED A BACHELOR'S
FROM BOSTON COLLEGE AND A
MASTER'S AND PHD FROM BOSTON
UNIVERSITY. CARRYING HIS WIFE
ALICE WHO'S WITH US TODAY AND
FAMILY SHARED A HOME ON BAILEY
ROAD IN WATERTOWN MASSACHUSETTS.
THEIR HOME BECAME THE LAUNCHING
PAD FOR MAYBE ARMENIANS WHO
IMMIGRATED TO THE UNITED STATES
BECAME ACCLIMATED TO AMERICAN
LIFE AND CULTURE WITH THE
SUPPORT OF THE SUPPORTING
FAMILY.
SO DESPITE THE TURKS BEST
EFFORTS THERE MANY PEOPLE NOT
ONLY HAVE SURVIVED BUT HAVE
THRIVED. I WANT TO THANK THIS
BODY VANS FOR PASSING THIS ROUTE
RESOLUTION BUT. IT'S NOT ENOUGH
WE NEED TO ENSURE THEIR
TEXTBOOKS INCLUDE THE HISTORICAL
FACTS THE GENOCIDE. SO OTHER
PROGRAMS NEVER OCCUR AGAIN
ANYWHERE.
ON THE HUNDREDTH ANNIVERSARY OF
THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE THEN SI AM
I MARCH WITH A HUNDRED THIRTY
THOUSAND. OTHER PEOPLE IN THE
STREETS OF LOS ANGELES DEMANDING
JUSTICE FROM THE TURKISH
GOVERNMENT. THE COLLECTIVE PAIN

MEMBER OF THE ARMENIAN CAUCUS I

YOU TODAY TO COMMEMORATE.
THE ONE HUNDRED AND THIRD
ANNIVERSARY OF THE ARMENIAN
GENOCIDE.
AS A RESULT OF THE DIASPORA FROM
ARMENIA HAS WELL AS.
OF LEBANON SYRIA AND IRAN AND
OTHER COUNTRIES SO WE HAVE SO
MANY. YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN.
TODAY A LOOKING DOWN UPON US
ARMENIAN AMERICANS HAVE FROM ALL
OVER THE GREAT STATE OF
CALIFORNIA WHO HAVE IN RICH ARE.
FAR HOME STATE OUR NATION
GREATLY WHETHER IT IS
ECONOMICALLY WITH ITS CULTURALLY
WITH ITS POLITICALLY. FOR
GASTRONOMICAL AND A FOR THAT
IDEA WE STAND INDEBTED TO EACH
AND EVERYONE OF YOU AND WHAT YOU
HAVE DONE FOR US HERE IN THE
GREAT STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
CALIFORNIA STANDS ON THE RIGHT
SIDE OF JUSTICE IT IS HOME TO
THOSE WHO ARE TORN FROM THEIR
HOMELANDS.
YOU'RE MEETING STORY IS PART OF
THE GREATER CALIFORNIA'S STORY
AND I AM A DEEPLY HONORED AND
PROUD TO REPRESENT A LITTLE OUR
MEDIA.
MANY ARMENIANS HAVE CALLED IT
THEIR HOME FOR DECADES IN FACT.
WHEN HE ASKED FOR A.
BEGAN MANY FOLKS WHEN THEY
ARRIVED HERE TO CALIFORNIA IF
YOU WEREN'T IN THE CENTRAL
VALLEY OR ELSEWHERE. YOU CAME TO
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND YOU
FIRST CAME TO LITTLE ARMENIA.
AND I HAVE BEEN PROUD TO
REPRESENT US THERE FOR MORE THAN
A DECADE.
A CENTURY HAS PASSED AS
ARTICULATED BY SO MANY WONDERFUL
SPEAKERS.
BUT SINCE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE AND
YET WE CONTINUE TO FACE THE SAME
HATRED. AND INTOLERANCE
THAT HAS LED TO THAT HORRIFIC
HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATION.
TODAY ARE SIMPLY GOES TO ALL THE
SURVIVORS OF THE MEANING
GENOCIDE AND THEIR CHILDREN AND
GRANDCHILDREN AND GREAT
GRANDCHILDREN.
ESPECIALLY TO NEARLY HALF A
MILLION PEOPLE OF ARMENIAN
DESCENT JUST RIGHT HERE IN OUR
GREAT STATE OF CALIFORNIA. TODAY
WE ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE THE
ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND THE
DEDICATION OF THE DESCENDANTS OF
THE GENOCIDE VICTIMS.
WHO CONTINUE TO FIGHT FOR
JUSTICE AND PLAY A VITAL ROLE IN
CALIFORNIA'S ADVANCEMENT?
THE GREAT STATE OF CALIFORNIA I
WILL ASSURE ALL OF YOU.
TO ARMENIAN BROTHERS AND SISTERS
WILL NOT LET YOUR HISTORY
VANISH.
AND WILL NOT LET YOU DEMAND FOR

SO MANY SENATORS HERE ON BOTH
SIDES OF THE AISLE REPUBLICANS
AND DEMOCRATS OF SPOKE SO
ELOQUENTLY ELEGANTLY ABOUT THE
IMPORTANT BECAUSE OF THE
ARMENIANS AND THE CAUSE FOR
RECOGNITION. OF WHAT TOOK PLACE
WHAT HAPPENED AND I THINK THE
SENATE FROM SANTA MONICA ARTICLE
GAVE SOME CONTEXT TO THE
HISTORY.
AND ALSO HOW WITH THE MOST EVIL
HUMAN BEINGS.
IN.
THE HISTORY OF HUMANKIND. USE OF
THIS GENOCIDE AS A PRETEXT TO
SAY WE CAN MOVE FORWARD
EXTERMINATE.
MORE THAN SIX MILLION JEWS AS
WELL AS OTHER INDIVIDUALS
BOB BECAUSE NO ONE SAID ANYTHING
ABOUT THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE. SO
THEREFORE IT IS POSSIBLE TO GET
AWAY WITH MASS GENOCIDE WITHOUT
ANY SENSE OF A CUP
ACCOUNTABILITY OR JUSTICE. SO
WHAT WE WITNESSED HERE TODAY
OBVIOUSLY BY COMMEMORATING THE
ANNIVERSARY OF THE GENOCIDE. AND
BY HAVING THESE MOMENTS.
AND ALSO TO THE HUGE MARCH THAT
WILL TAKE PLACE TOMORROW. AND
THE MEN AND WOMEN HERE TODAY WE
ONCE AGAIN COLLECTIVELY ARE.
PUSHING FOR JUSTICE AND
ADVOCATING FOR JUSTICE.
THE ACKNOWLEDGMENT THE
RECOGNITION OF WHAT TOOK PLACE
AND THE TRAGEDY OF THE ONE POINT
FIVE MILLION ARMENIAN AMERICANS
WHO KILLED.
AND.
DEPORTED FROM THEIR HOMELAND TO
FIND REFUGE HERE IN AMERICA AND
HERE IN OUR GREAT STATE.
CALIFORNIA.
ALSO WANT TO SAY THAT'S.
WE HAVE ARE A WONDERFUL
HISTORIAN HERE TODAY WITH US
DOCTOR RICHARD. OF WE NOW SEE

ECONOMIC A GASTRONOMICAL.
CONTRIBUTIONS TO WHO WE ARE AS A

BECAUSE OF THE ARMENIAN AMERICAN
COMMUNITY IN AGAIN AS WE
DEMONSTRATE TO THE REST OF THE

ISSUE WE COME TOGETHER DEMOCRATS

FOREFATHERS. WERE MASSACRED ON
THEIR OWN LAND.

REMEMBERING OUR HISTORY IS AN
IMPORTANT FIRST STEP FULLY DON'T

IT DIDN'T REALLY HAPPEN?
THAT IT WAS A POOR IT DOESN'T SO
MUCH MORE THAN PORTS ALL IN THE
WOMAN IT IS IT IS JUST IT IS

HILL THANK YOU BET THANK YOU
VERY MUCH MADAM PRESIDENT
MEMBERS S. B. EIGHT TWENTY THREE
WILL MODERNIZE AND STREAMLINE
THE PROCESS IS FOR COMPETE
CONSUMERS. WHO WANT A PLACE IN
LIFT FREEZES ON THEIR CREDIT
REPORT?
ALARMING DATA BREACHES OF
PERSONAL INFORMATION HAVE BECOME
ALL TOO COMMON IT DOESN'T MAKE
SENSE TO FORCE CALIFORNIANS TO
PAY. TO PROTECT THEIR CREDIT.
CREDIT AGENCIES ARE INVOLVED IN
VIRTUALLY ALL ASPECTS OF OUR
LIVES FROM BUYING A CAR TO
RUNNING AN APARTMENT.
EVEN SIGNED IN A NEW CELLPHONE
CONTRACT THESE CREDIT REPORTING
AGENCIES POSSESS OUR MOST
SENSITIVE INFORMATION AND THEY
SHOULDN'T PROFIT FROM CONSUMERS
EFFORTS TO PROTECT THEIR
PERSONAL PERSONAL AND FINANCIAL
INFORMATION.
CONSUMERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE
FULL CONTROL OF THEIR CREDIT
INFORMATION SHOULD BE FREE AND
JUST AS IMPORTANT. EASY TO
MAINTAIN. S. B. EIGHT TWENTY
THREE MODERNIZE IS THIS PRACTICE
BY SHORTENING THE TIME THE
AGENCIES HAVE.
PLACE AND LIFT A FREEZE
REQUIRING THEIR WEBSITES AND
MOBILE APPS. TO HAVE A PROMINENT
LINK TO FREEZE AND UNFREEZE YOUR
CREDIT AND CREATES A ONE STOP
SHOP.
FOR CREDIT FREEZES WORK
CUSTOMER.
THE CONSUMER WOULD ONLY HAVE TO
CONTACT ONE OF THE BUREAU'S IN
THAT BUREAU WOULD CONTACT THE
OTHERS FOR YOU. THIS IS EXACTLY
EXACTLY WHAT ALREADY HAPPENS FOR
SECURITY FRAUD ALERTS THAT WERE
CREATED BY CONGRESS IN NINETEEN
SEVENTY.
CONSUMERS HAVE LITTLE CHOICE BUT
TO WORK WITH THESE REPORTING
AGENCIES THESE COMPANIES ARE
UNIQUE IN THE SENSE THT THEY
COLLECT OUR INFORMATION WITHOUT
OUR CONSENT OR KNOWLEDGE. AND
THEN PROFIT FROM IT.
YOU KNOW OTHER KIND OF BUSINESS
THAT I KNOW OF DO I HAVE AN
ACCOUNT. THAT I DIDN'T APPLY FOR
OR ASK FOR CALIFORNIA HAS ALWAYS
BEEN A LEADER IN ADVANCING
LEGISLATION TO PROTECT CONSUMERS
RIGHTS ESPECIALLY. WHEN IT COMES
TO FINANCIAL PRIVACY.
WITH SO MANY BREACHES
COMPROMISING CONSUMERS PERSONAL

THERE THAT NOW TO TAKE THE LEAD
ON IMPROVING SECURITY. INSERT WE

GET THE INDUSTRY TO BUY IN. THAT

THE PROVISION OF MOBILE APPS TO
BE INSTIGATED BY THE. THAT THAT
WILL INSTIGATE THE CREDIT
PREACHES.
AND FIND SOMETHING MORE
ACCOMMODATING THAN A FIFTEEN

ELECTRONICALLY. THE ONE BUSINESS

REEXAMINED.

NOT TO RELEASE THIS INFORMATION

WHERE THE INFORMATION HAS BEEN
RELEASED TO THE DETRIMENT OF

THIS RELEASE INFORMATION IS LED
TO TROUBLING ISSUES IN OUR
