TWENTY NINETEEN AS THE
ANNIVERSARY OF THE ARMENIAN
GENOCIDE OF NINETEEN FIFTEEN IN.
NINETEEN TWENTY THREE BEGINNING
ON APRIL TWENTY FOURTH NINETEEN
FIFTEEN IN AN EFFORT TO RADIC
KATE.
THE ARMENIAN NATION THE YOUNG
TURKS GOVERNMENT OF THE OTTOMAN
EMPIRE SYSTEMATICALLY
SLAUGHTERED ARMENIAN MEN WOMEN
AND CHILDREN.
THE GENOCIDE CONTINUED FROM.
NINETEEN TWENTY TO NINETEEN
TWENTY THREE THIS RESOLUTION
PAYS HOMAGE TO THE ONE POINT
FIVE MILLION AMER ARMENIANS THAT
WERE KILLED.
DURING THIS HORRIFIC PERIOD OF
TIME.
MEMBERS WHEN WE THINK OF ONE
POINT FIVE MILLION PEOPLE IT'S
HARD TO CAPTURE WITH THAT TRULY
MEANS.
PRIOR TO THE GENOCIDE THERE WERE
TWO MILLION ARMENIANS LIVING IN
THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE BUT WITHIN A
SHORT TIME THREE QUARTERS OF AN
ACCIDENT.
ANCIENT I'M SORRY ANCIENT
CIVILIZATION PERISHED AND AN
ENTIRE NATION WAS NEARLY
OBLITERATED.
WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT IS
MILLIONS OF STORIES NEVER TOLD?
FUTURE GENERATIONS NEVER BORING
AND MILLIONS OF SHATTERED
FAMILIES AND DREAMS.
AS THE HOME OF THE LARGEST
POPULATION OF ARMENIAN AMERICANS
IN THE UNITED STATES CALIFORNIA
RECOGNIZES THE MANY
CONTRIBUTIONS THE ARMENIAN
COMMUNITY HAS MADE THROUGH THEIR
LEADERSHIP IN GOVERNMENT
AGRICULTURE ACADEMIA BUSINESS
AND THE ARTS.
HOWEVER IT'S NOT ENOUGH TO
SIMPLY ACKNOWLEDGE THESE
CONTRIBUTIONS WE HAVE THE MORAL
RESPONSIBILITY. TO CURRENT AND
FUTURE GENERATIONS TO NOW TO NOT
ALLOW THE ATROCITIES AND THE
VIOLATIONS OF HUMAN RIGHTS
COMMITTED BY THE TURKISH
GOVERNMENT AGAINST ARMENIANS.
AND OTHER CHRISTIANS TO BE
FORGOTTEN THIS IS WHY TODAY ASK
FOR YOUR SUPPORT ON THIS
RESOLUTION.
THANK YOU AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR YOUR AYE VOTE AND ASKED FOR
THE FIRST ROLE TO BE OPEN FOR CO
AUTHORS.
THANK YOU MISTER EVANS MISTER
CALDERON YOU ARE RECOGNIZED
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER AND
MEMBERS I RISE TODAY ON BEHALF
OF THE CALIFORNIA LATINO
LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS IN SUPPORT OF
HR.
SIXTEEN OVER A HUNDRED YEARS AGO
THE WORLD WITNESSED THE
SLAUGHTER OF ONE AND A HALF
MILLION ARMENIAN MEN WOMEN AND
CHILDREN WHO WERE EXILED FROM
THE HISTORIC HOMELAND.
CALIFORNIA IS HOME TO THE
AMERICA'S LARGEST ARMENIAN
AMERICAN DIASPORA.
AND MOST OF THEM HAVE FAMILY
MEMBERS WHO ARE SURVIVORS AND
HAVE EXPERIENCED THE EVIL OF
GENOCIDE FIRST HAND.
IN CALIFORNIA WE'RE COMMITTED TO
SUPPORTING SUPPORTING IN MANY
AMERICAN COMMUNITIES AND SEEKING
JUSTICE FOR THIS CRIME AS IT HAS
GONE ON RECOGNIZE FOR FAR TOO
LONG.
AS WE CONTINUE TO SEEK JUSTICE
FOR THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE WE
ALSO CELEBRATE THE SURVIVAL OF A
PEOPLE WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED SO
MUCH TO CALIFORNIA'S ECONOMY.
GOVERNMENT BUSINESS ARTS AND
CULTURE.
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY I AM PROUD
OF OUR STATE AND OUR LEGISLATURE
FOR TAKING IMPORTANT STEPS TO
EDUCATE OUR CITIZENS ABOUT HUMAN
RIGHTS AND GENOCIDE.
IN HOPES TO RAISE A GENERATION
OF LEADERS THAT WILL ALWAYS
CHOOSE LOVE OVER HATE.
AND TOLERANCE OVER
DISCRIMINATION.
THANK YOU AND I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR AN AYE VOTE ON AJ ARE.
SIXTEEN THANK YOU MISTER
CALDERON MR HOLDEN YOU ARE
RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER I RISE
TODAY TO EXPRESS MY SUPPORT FOR
AGA ARE.
SIXTEEN WHICH DESIGNATES APRIL
TWENTY FOURTH TWO THOUSAND
NINETEEN AS THE HUNDRED AND
FOURTH ANNIVERSARY.
OF THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE.
THE MASSACRE TOOK PLACE FROM.
NINETEEN FIFTEEN TO NINETEEN
TWENTY THREE AND IT BRINGS ME
GREAT SADNESS.
AS I THINK ABOUT THE MILLIONS OF
INNOCENT MEN WOMEN AND CHILDREN.
WHO LOST THEIR LIVES FROM MASS
BURNINGS FORCE DROWNINGS DEATH
MARCHES AND POISONING?
BRAVE MEN SOUGHT OUT TO PROTECT
THEIR FAMILIES BUT REMAIN
HELPLESS.
WHILE VULNERABLE WOMEN AND
CHILDREN WERE EXILED OR EXECUTED
AS THEIR IDENTITY SELF WORTH.
AND CULTURE WERE SLOWLY BEING
PLUCKED FROM CIVILIZATION.
TODAY CALIFORNIA IS THE HOME TO
ABOUT FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND
ARMENIANS FOUR THOUSAND OF WHICH
RESIDE IN MY DISTRICT.
AND CONTRIBUTE TO OUR ECONOMY
THROUGH LITERATURE CULTURE.
AND VISUAL ARTS.
THE SUFFERING THAT ARMENIAN
POPULATION AND THIRD MEANS
SOMETHING TO ME NOT BECAUSE IT
ILLUSTRATES THE INFRINGEMENT.
OF HUMAN RIGHTSBUT BECAUSE IT
IS A REMINDER OF THEIR COURAGE
AND STRUGGLE TO SURVIVE. FOR
THESE REASONS I RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR YOUR RIVAL.
THERE WAS HOLDEN THIS GABRIEL.
YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER I RISE
TODAY ON BEHALF OF THE JEWISH
CAUCUS IN SUPPORT OF AJ ARE.
SIXTEEN TODAY WE REMEMBER THE
ARMENIAN GENOCIDE IN HONOR THOSE
WHOSE LIVES WERE BRUTALLY CUT
SHORT DURING THE FIRST GENOCIDE
OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY.
WE STAND WITH THOSE WHO LOST
LOVED ONES AND THOSE WHO CAME TO
AMERICA TO REBUILD THEIR LIVES.
DESPITE THE TURKISH GOVERNMENT'S
EFFORT TO DENY HISTORY WE WILL
NOT FORGET.
WE WILL NOT FORGET THE BRUTALITY
THE DISPLACEMENT AND THE MURDER
OF MORE THAN ONE POINT FIVE
MILLION ARMENIANS.
WE WILL NOT FORGET BECAUSE
DENIAL OF HISTORICAL FACT DENIES
JUSTICE COMPOUNDS INJURY.
UNDERMINES HEALING PREVENTS
CLOSURE AND ENCOURAGES THOSE WHO
SEE GENOCIDE AS LEGITIMATE.
INDEED THERE IS NO BETTER
EXAMPLE THAN THE WORDS OF ADOLF
HITLER WHO IN THE YEARS PRIOR TO
THE HOLOCAUST FAMOUSLY ASK.
WHO AFTER ALL SPEAKS TODAY OF
THE I NEED ANNIHILATION OF THE
ARMENIANS?
TODAY ON BEHALF OF THE PEOPLE OF
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA WE MUST
SPEAK OF THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE.
WE MUST REMEMBER HISTORY AS IT
ACTUALLY HAPPENED AND CONDEMN
HATE IN ALL OF ITS FORMS.
IN RECENT WEEKS THE ARMENIAN
COMMUNITY AND MY DISTRICT IN THE
WEST SAN FERNANDO VALLEY HAS
BEEN TARGETED BY HATE.
THIS IS NOT ONLY A MATTER OF
HISTORY. TO ARMENIAN SCHOOLS IN
THE WEST SAN FERNANDO VALLEY
WERE VANDALIZED WITH TURKISH
FLAGS.
THE EQUIVALENT OF HANGING ****
FLAGS AT A SYNAGOGUE FOR A
JEWISH SCHOOL.
INCIDENTS LIKE THESE REMIND US
THAT WE MUST REMAIN CONSTANTLY
VIGILANT.
ONLY BY BEING HONEST ABOUT THE
HORRORS OF THE PAST CAN WE HOPE
TO PREVENT FUTURE ACTS OF
GENOCIDE.
IN THAT SPIRIT AND ON BEHALF OF
THE JEWISH CAUCUS I RESPECTFULLY
ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT FOR AJ ARE.
SIXTEEN THANK YOU RICH GABRIEL
DR WEBER YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER AND
MEMBERS I'D TO RISE IN SUPPORT
OF AJ ARE SIXTEEN ON BEHALF OF
THE CALIFORNIA LEGISLATIVE BLACK
CAUCUS.
WE APPLAUD THE EFFORTS OF THE
ARMENIANS FOR THEIR PURSUIT OF
TRUTH AND JUSTICE FOR THE
ARMENIAN DURING THEIR MEDIANS A
GENOCIDE.
AND THE EXPERIENCE OF ARMENIANS
UNDER THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE IS NOT
MUCH DIFFERENT FROM THE
EXPERIENCE OF AFRICAN SLAVES OR
NATIVE AMERICANS IN THIS COUNTRY.
IT IS REALLY QUITE INTERESTING
THAT WE ARE HERE TALKING ABOUT
THIS THE GENOCIDE.
AND ONCE AGAIN COMMITTING
OURSELVES TO NEVER LETTING THIS
HAPPEN AGAIN.
WE KNOW SO MANY WHO HAVE
SUFFERED THIS FORM OF GENOCIDE.
THIS ATTACK ON A INDIVIDUALS
THEIR IDENTITY AND THEIR CULTURE
IN THIS NATION.
THE OTHER DAY I WAS READING AN
ARTICLE IN THE UNION TRIBUNE AS
WE WERE CELEBRATING.
A TWO HUNDRED FIFTY OR FOUR
HUNDRED YEARS I GUESS IT IS FOR
THE ECONOMY AYE INDIANS AND
THEIR CONTACT WITH AMERICANS --
WHO CAME HERE AND IT WAS
INTERESTING BECAUSE THEY TALKED
ABOUT THIS WHOLE IDEA THAT THE
THOUGHT WAS THAT THEY WOULD JUST
SIMPLY X. -- EXTERMINATE THE
COMEY AYE INDIANS.
AND THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DO
THAT BUT THEY HAD BASICALLY
REDUCE THEIR NUMBERS DOWN TO
VERY SMALL NUMBERS.
AND PUT THEM INTO PLACES THAT WE
NOW CALL RESERVATIONS IN AREAS
THAT ARE ALMOST DESOLATE WITH
REGARDS THE ABILITY TO GROW
CROPS.
AND THE THOUGHT WAS A WILL JUST
EXTERMINATE THEM AND WE'LL JUST
MOVE ON BECAUSE THEY WERE
OBVIOUSLY NOT USEFUL TO THEM
ANYMORE ONCE THEY HAD NURTURED
THEM BACK TO HEALTH.
BECAUSE THOSE WHO WAS THE
SPANIARD TO CAME HERE WERE ILL
WHEN THEY ARRIVED IN THIS
COUNTRY IN THIS COUNTRY AND SO
THEY THOUGHT THEY WOULD
EXTERMINATE THE INDIANS A CALL
ME I BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING
MUCH MORE POWERFUL IN THEM THE
COSTUME TO SURVIVE AND TO LIVE.
WE KNOW OF THE MILLIONS WHO DIED
IN THE MIDDLE PASSAGE COMING
FROM AFRICA TO THE UNITED STATES.
THAT OFTENTIMES OVER 50% OF THE
CARGO WAS THROWN OVERBOARD OF
PEOPLE COMMITTED SORT OUT
SUICIDE IT DIDN'T SURVIVE THE
MIDDLE PASSAGE TO COME HERE.
AND AFTER THAT STILL THE KIND OF
DEGRADATION THAT OCCUR TO TAKE
AWAY THEIR IDENTITY THE TAKE
AWAY THE SENSE OF PURPOSE AND
FOCUS AND SO WE'VE SEEN THIS
COUNTRY BASICALLY PARTICIPATE IN
THIS WHOLE ISSUE.
OF GENOCIDE IN VARIOUS WAYS AND
SO WHEN WE LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENS
AROUND THE WORLD WE HAVE TO
RECOGNIZE THAT THIS IS A
DEVASTATING EXPERIENCE.
A LASTING EXPERIENCE THAT NOT
ONLY OF IMPACTS THE FOLKS AT
THAT MOMENT BUT FOR GENERATIONS
AND GENERATIONS TO COME.
IT IS SO IMPERATIVE THAT WE TALK
ABOUT OUR HISTORY IT IS STRONG
THIS FORM SO THE WE TALK ABOUT
THE COURAGE OF THOSE WHO
SURVIVED WHO WERE DETERMINED TO
MAINTAIN THEIR SENSE OF HUMANITY.
AND NOT BE VICIOUS IN THE
PROCESS BUT ALSO TO MAINTAIN
THEIR CULTURE AND TO ACTUALLY
GROW AND DEVELOP FROM WHAT
THEY'VE EXPERIENCED.
IT IS -- INTERESTING AS WE STAND
HERE TODAY THAT WE ARE STILL
TALKING ABOUT THIS ISSUE.
AND WE ARE FACED WITH SO MANY
HATE CRIMES AND SO MANY THINGS
THAT ARE HAPPENING THAT WE HAVE
A TENDENCY TO IGNORE THE TAPPED
ON INDIVIDUALS.
WE WERE TALKING ABOUT IN MY
FAMILY THE BURNING OF THE OF THE
CHURCH IN IN PARIS AND SOMEONE
SAID TO ME BUT WHAT ABOUT THE
THREE BLACK CHURCHES THAT WERE
BURNED IN THE UNITED STATES
DOING ONE WEEKEND.
I MEAN THESE ARE THINGS THAT WE
HAVE TO CONFRONT THAT ARE HERE
WITH US AT THIS MOMENT.
AND IF WE DON'T THEN WE ARE NO
BETTER THAN THOSE WHO
PARTICIPATED IN THE IN THE
GENOCIDE THEMSELVES BECAUSE WERE
TURNING OUT I AWAY FROM THE
SMALL THINGS BUT THEY'RE REALLY
VERY LARGE THINGS AND VERY
SYMPTOMATIC OF A NATION.
THAT REFUSES TO DEAL WITH ITS
HISTORY.
AND ITS PRESENT AND THEREFORE
OBVIOUSLY WILL HAVE CONTINUED TO
DAMAGE THE FUTURE.
I'VE SAID ON THIS FOR MANY MANY
TIMES AND WE HAVE TO BE VIGILANT
WE MUST CONTINUE TO WATCH ALL OF
THOSE THINGS THAT HAVE A
TENDENCY TO DESTROY US.
AND OUR HUMANITY AND OUR SENSE
OF DEMOCRACY IN FAIRNESS AND
pTHAT HATRED AND INCLUSION IN
THIS NATION IS LIKE A RARE
FLOWER THAT HAS TO BE CONSTANTLY
REMEMBERED AND NURTURED AND
CARED.
FOR BUT HATRED IS A WEEK.
DISCRIMINATION IS A WEEK AND A
GROWS BEST IN THE COLLECT AND WE
HAVE TO BE CAREFUL THAT WE'RE
NOT NEGLECTING WHAT WE SEE THAT
WE ROOTED OUT AND WE CONTINUE TO
GROW THAT WHICH IS WONDERFUL.
I THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR
THIS RESOLUTION AND THE BLACK
CAUCUS STRONGLY SUPPORTS AG ARE
SIXTEEN AND HOPE THAT YOU WILL
VOTE FOR IT.
THANK YOU DOCTOR WEBER MISTER
GALLAGHER YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER AND
MEMBERS I RISE.
AS I HAVE.
ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO SUPPORT
THIS RESOLUTION -- BECAUSE I
BELIEVE AS I'VE SAID BEFORE THAT
IS IMPORTANT THAT WE CONTINUE TO
RECOGNIZE.
WHAT HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST
THAT WE CONTINUE TO CALL IT WHAT
IT IS?
THAT WE CALL THIS THE GENOCIDE.
THAT WE THAT WE TALK ABOUT WHAT
HAPPENED TO THE ARMENIAN PEOPLE
AND THAT WE REMEMBER.
THESE THINGS ANNA AND I THINK AS
AS HAS BEEN SPOKEN ON THIS FOR A
LITTLE BIT THIS MORNING IS.
IS THAT WE LOOK AT WHAT'S GOING
ON AROUND THE WORLD RIGHT NOW.
OVER THE OVER THE WEEKEND.
ON SUNDAY MORNING -- CELEBRATING
EASTER WITH MY FAMILY AT OUR
CHURCH AND GETTING THE NEWS OF
WHAT HAPPENED IN SRI LANKA.
WHERE THREE HUNDRED OVER THREE
HUNDRED OTHER CHRISTIANS WERE?
MURDERED AS THEY WORST.
PRACTICING THEIR FAITH JUST LIKE.
ME AND MY FAMILY WERE.
THAT MORNING AS WE LOOK AT
WHAT'S HAPPENED IN CHARLESTON
[inaudible]
IN PITTSBURGH.
IN NEW ZEALAND.
AND ALL THESE THINGS THAT ARE
HAPPENING IN.
RIGHT HERE IN THE PRESENT
[inaudible]
AGE.
IN OUR PRESENT ERA.
WHERE ARE FOR WHATEVER REASON
PEOPLE HAVE GOTTEN TO A POINT
WHERE THIS?
THE WORDS EVEN THE WORDS THAT
PEOPLE ARE USING TO DE HUMANIZE
WHERE YOU CAN DE HUMANIZE
SOMEONE AS THE ENEMY.
WE START TO EVEN TALK ABOUT
OURSELVES EVEN AS AMERICANS
TALKING ABOUT THE OTHER SIDE AS
AN ENEMY.
RATHER THAN SOMEONE THAT MAY WE
JUST HAVE A DISAGREEMENT WITH.
AND SO I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS
WE REALLY NEED THIS TO START
THINKING ABOUT AS AS LEADERS IN
OUR COMMUNITY -- AS PEOPLE WHO
ARE TRYING TO CREATE A BETTER
WORLD FOR OUR CHILDREN -- IS
THAT.
YEAH WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT HOW
HOW WE START TALKING ABOUT EACH
OTHER AND HOW.
WE START BUILDING UP EACH OTHER --
AND THAT WE DON'T WE STOP THIS
YOU KNOW BECAUSE IT'S REALLY
EASY TO GO DOWN A PATH.
AND WE SEEN IT THROUGHOUT
HISTORY IS REALLY EASY TO GO
DOWN A PATH WHERE YOU BEGIN TO
DE HUMANIZE A GROUP.
AND IT GETS TO A POINT WHERE
WE'VE WHERE YOU'VE SEEN THE
ATROCITIES THAT HAVE OCCURRED.
AND WE NEED TO CALL OUT EVIL
WHEREVER IT EXISTS.
WHEN WE SEE THAT EVIL WHEN WE
SEE THE STARTING IS IN THE IN
THE CALLS?
IT'S IT'S NOT ALL THAT SUBTLE.
WE HAVE PEOPLE OUT THERE CALLING
FOR THE DEATHS OF CERTAIN GROUPS.
THIS CANNOT BE ALLOWED WE CAN'T
HAVE THIS KIND OF DIALOGUE WE
CAN ALLOW OUR DIALOGUE TO
CONTINUE DOWN THIS PATH.
AND SO THAT'S WHY I THINK IT'S
SO IMPORTANT TODAY THAT WE THAT
WE REMEMBER.
THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE WHAT LED
UP TO IT.
HOW IT GOT TO THAT POINT?
HOW EVEN TODAY?
THE TURKISH GOVERNMENT DENIES.
WHAT IT IS DONE?
AND HOW IT NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT
IN THE LIGHT JUST LIKE SO MANY
OTHER THINGS NEED TO BE BROUGHT
TO LIGHT.
AND THEN WE NEED TO LOOK BACK AT
OURSELVES AND LOOK IN THE MIRROR.
AND SAY HEY HOW DO WE ENSURE
THAT WE HAVE A DIALOGUE.
WE CAN DISAGREE ON THINGS WE CAN
HAVE DIFFERENCES OF OPINION
DIFFERENT [inaudible]
RELIGIONS -- BUT WE NEED TO ALSO
AT THE TIME AT THE SAME TIME
LEARN TO LIVE WITH EACH OTHER.
AND HAVE A RESPECTFUL AND A
CIVIL DIALOGUE AND I WORRY ABOUT
THAT.
AS IT CONTINUES TO DENIGRATE.
NOW IN OUR COUNTRY BUT
THROUGHOUT THE THROUGHOUT THE
WORLD.
THAT WE TRY TO LIFT THAT BACK UP.
AND I THINK THAT'S WHERE OUR
NATION HAS BEEN A BEACON OF
LIGHT.
AS BEING THAT.
THAT NATION THAT CAN LIFT UP THE
DIALOGUE THAT CAN LIFT UP. TO
THE HIGHEST IDEALS WE NEED TO
CONTINUE TO DO THAT.
AND SO I RISE WITH MY MY
COLLEAGUES TODAY SUPPORT THIS
RESOLUTION AND TO SUPPORT.
THAT KIND OF HIGHER DIALOGUE
THAT KIND OF HIGHER SPIRIT
[inaudible]
THAT WE IN THIS NATION WILL
CONTINUE TO LEAVE THANK YOU.
THEY GIVE US GALLAGHER.
MISTER NAZARIAN YOUR RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER OF
FIRST AND FOREMOST I LIKE.
TO OF COMMAND AND OF SAY HOW
MUCH HOW APPRECIATIVE I AM OF OF
MY COLLEAGUE -- REPRESENTS SUN
VALLEY TO BRING THIS A MEASURE
FORWARD.
SHE UNDERSTANDS WELL THIS ISSUE
BECAUSE SHE REPRESENTS MANY
ARMENIAN AMERICANS -- SO I STAND
IN SUPPORT OF AG ARE -- SIXTEEN
I ALSO WANT TO JUST.
SAY THANK YOU TO ALL OF MY
COLLEAGUES WHO HAVE SPOKEN AS
THE RESIDENT ARMENIAN AMERICAN
CALIFORNIAN -- WHO HAS THE HONOR
OF REPRESENTING -- A VOICE THAT
HAS UNFORTUNATELY DUE TO
GEOPOLITICS AND HISTORICAL
RESOURCE FIGHTS BEEN UNDER HEARD
AND NOT RECEIVED IT'S DUE
RECOGNITION.
UP.
LIKE TO THANK ALL OF MY
COLLEAGUES FOR THEIR RESOUNDING
SUPPORT AND FOR ALWAYS.
KEEPING THIS VOICE HEARD -- I
ALSO WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT AND
THANK MY COLLEAGUE FROM CHULA
VISTA WHO NOT ONLY EVERY YEAR
GIVES AN IMPASSIONED SPEECH.
BUT ALSO THE REFERENCES THAT SHE
HAS MADE -- I OFTEN WONDER ABOUT
THE EXPERIENCE OF ARMENIANS
VERSUS AFRICAN AMERICAN SLAVES --
WHILE BOTH ARE TRAGIC.
I SOMETIMES FEEL.
AS ARMENIANS WE WERE THERE WAS
AN EFFORT TO ERADICATE.
BUT THOSE OF US WHO SURVIVED
STILL NO WHERE OUR LANDS ARE.
STILL NO WHERE WE COME FROM
[inaudible]
STILL NO.
AS YOU WILL SEE THERE IS A BOOK
ON ALL OF YOUR DESKS.
THERE'S FIGHTS OVER SEND
SPENDING OVER CENTURIES OF WHAT
PAGES OF WHAT MANUSCRIPTS WERE
STOLEN.
AND FOR WHAT.
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IT WAS SOLD
TO WITH THIS MUSEUM WHERE THAT
MUSEUM AND NOW THEY'RE ALL BEING
WEEK.
RECOLLECTED AND BEING PUT INTO
BACK INTO ONE ONE PLACE.
SO THERE IS A CON CONTINUATION.
TO THE HISTORY.
THROUGH THE FACT THAT WE
SURVIVED.
AND WE WERE ABLE.
TO LAKE CLAIM AND CONTINUE TO
FIGHT AND PURSUE THAT CLAIM.
WHEN I TALK TO MY AFRICAN
AMERICAN FRIENDS AND THIS IS
GOING BACK TO THE TIME WHEN I
WAS A TEENAGER?
AND TRY TAKES ASK WILL DO YOU
KNOW WHERE YOUR FAMILY CAME FROM
INITIALLY.
AND TO HAVE THAT FAMILIAR OLD.
BOND NOT BEING ABLE TO BE
STRETCHED BEYOND JUST YOUR
GRANDPARENTS GENERATION.
THAT'S SOMETHING THAT I'VE NEVER
FELT.
I'VE NEVER KNOWN HOW HARD THAT
IS. TO HAVE A TO HAVE
[inaudible]
A LINE.
COMPLETELY BROKEN AND NOT EVEN
KNOW WHERE YOU'RE FROM.
AND WHEN WE SWEEP ISSUES LIKE
THIS UNDER THE CARPET.
WHICH IS HAPPENING BECAUSE OF A
COUPLE OF THINGS COLLEAGUES
LET'S BE HONEST.
IS SHE POLITICS ITS OIL.
THAT'S WHAT IT IS. TO THIS DAY.
THE TURKISH GOVERNMENT
[inaudible]
WILL [inaudible]
DEMOLISH.
OR BREAK A PART.
TAKE DOWN CROSSES.
DESTROY ANY TYPE OF CULTURAL
ARTIFACTS ON ITS LAND.
AND THE REPUBLIC OF AZERBAIJAN
AND ITS OWN FOOTAGE.
IT'S YOU CAN SEE IT ON YOU. TO
TO THIS DAY.
THAT DESTRUCTION HAPPENS IN
ORDER TO REVISE HISTORY TO SAY
THAT THIS ANGEL PEOPLE ANCIENT
PEOPLE WHO LIVED THERE FOR FIVE
THOUSAND YEARS.
REALLY WAS NOT THERE IT'S ALL.
FICTION.
THIS IS HAPPENING.
IN OUR LIFETIMES.
THIS IS HAPPENING WHILE WE HAVE
THE TECHNOLOGY AND THE
CAPABILITY TO SEE WHAT'S WHAT
AND WHERE EVERYTHING IS.
AND IT'S HAPPENING RIGHT NOW SO
YOU CAN ONLY IMAGINE.
WHAT THE MONTH OF APRIL TO ME
FEELS LIKE BECAUSE IT'S THIS
TREMENDOUS WEIGHT?
EVERY TIME MARCH ENDS AND APRIL
BEGINS.
AND IRONICALLY APRIL IS SUPPOSED
TO BE THE MONTH OF REBIRTH.
IT SUPPORT WE JUST CELEBRATED
NOR IS LESS THAN A MONTH AGO.
IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE THE TIME
THAT.
LIFE IS BLOOMING AND
REGENERATING [inaudible]
AND YET. TWO WEEKS AGO WE
RECOGNIZE THE CAMBODIAN
[inaudible]
GENOCIDE.
NEXT WEEK WE'RE GONNA BE
RECOGNIZING THE JEWISH HOLOCAUST.
AT SOME POINT WE WILL BE ALSO.
MAKING SURE EVEN THOUGH IT'S IN
SPOKEN WORDS IN ALL OF OUR ALL
OF OUR COMMENTS THE RWANDAN
GENOCIDE WAS ALSO IN APRIL.
ALONG WITH THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE.
IT.
EVERYONE OF THEM HAVE HAPPENED
IN A DIFFERENT CONTEXT.
IN ONE CASE. ONE WAS KILLED ON
THEIR OWN LAND IN ANOTHER CASE.
ONE MAD MEN WENT AROUND ALL THE
OTHER COUNTRIES AND MADE SURE
ALL THE DIE ASPIRIN COMMUNITIES
WERE KILLED IN ANOTHER.
THE ONLY REGION KILLED ITS OWN
PEOPLE IN ANOTHER AREA TWO
TRIBES THAT HAVE BEEN LIVING
TOGETHER FOR CENTURIES.
WE'RE COMMITTING THE ATROCIOUS
HORRIFIC ACTIVITIES WITH AGAINST
ONE ANOTHER -- AND UNFORTUNATELY
HERE ON OUR OWN LAND.
WE STILL YET.
TO A DRESS APPROPRIATELY WHAT IS
HAPPENED. TO THE INDIGENOUS
PEOPLES OF THE UNITED STATES.
BEFORE THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA WAS ESTABLISHED
[inaudible]
SO -- I I THINK ALL OF YOU FOR
STANDING.
UP I I JUST WANT TO MAKE.
THERE ARE TWO PROFOUND COMMENTS
THE STATEMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN
MADE OVER TIME THAT I THINK
SPEAK VERY WELL TO THIS ISSUE.
ONE IS THAT I I CAN'T HELP BUT
TO REMEMBER THE POINT WORDS OF
DOCTOR MARTIN LUTHER KING WHEN
YOU SO ACCURATELY STATED IN THE
END.
WE WILL REMEMBER NOT THE WORDS
OF OUR ENEMIES BUT THE SILENCE
OF OUR FRIENDS.
AND THAT AN INJUSTICE IN ONE
PLACE IS AN INJUSTICE EVERYWHERE.
RAISING THE SECOND.
ONE BUT THE OTHER ONE FROM
PHILOSOPHER AND WRITER MILAN
KUNDERA.
THE STRUGGLE OF MAN AGAINST
POWER IS THE STRUGGLE OF MEMORY
AGAINST FORGETTING.
ALL OF US HERE IN THIS CHAMBERS
KNOW WHAT HAS HAPPENED.
BECAUSE OF OUR POSITIONS WE HAVE
THE OPPORTUNITY FOR EXPOSURE.
BUT MANY OF OUR RESIDENTS.
LIVING IN THE FIFTY LARGEST
ECONOMY OF THE WORLD THAT HAS
THE BENEFITS AND THE RICHES.
OF INFORMATION AT THEIR
FINGERTIPS.
STILL DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THESE
ISSUES.
AND THE LONGER THEY GO ON NOT
KNOWING.
THAT'S UNFORTUNATELY WHAT ALLOWS.
HORRIFIC ACTIVITIES TO HAPPEN
BECAUSE IF WE DON'T HOLD PEOPLE
ACCOUNTABLE FOR WHAT THEY DID.
IF WE DON'T TAKE STEPS TO MAKE
SURE THAT PEOPLE PAID THE PRICE.
FOR THE ACTIVITIES THAT THEY
COMMITTED THE HORRORS THAT THEY
COMMITTED.
IN THIS CASE WHEN MY COLLEAGUE
FROM ENCINO SPOKE ABOUT THE
FLAGS BEING PUT UP.
MANY OF US EVEN HERE WOULD SAY.
WHY DOES A FLAG IGNITE SUCH
HORRIFIC MEMORIES [inaudible]
COLLEAGUES.
WHEN HITLER TOOK OVER GERMANY HE
CHANGED THE FLAG?
AND PUT THE SWASTIKA ON THE FLAG.
WHEN HITLER FELL?
THE FLAG WENT AWAY.
SYMBOLIZING THAT THE REGIME.
IS GONE.
WE WILL NEVER TRY TO BRING THAT
BACK AGAIN.
THE TURKISH REPUBLICS FLAG.
IS STILL THE SAME.
FROM PHOTOS YOU CAN EVEN LOOK AT
WHEN THEY WOULD MASS HANG.
COMMUNITY LEADERS IN TOWNS AND
CITIES IN ARMENIA.
HISTORIC LANDS OF ARMENIA.
AND YET THE CLAIM THAT THE
GOVERNMENT HAS CHANGED THE
SYMBOLS HAVE CHANGED.
AND THAT THEY ARE REFORMED AND
THAT WAS IN THE PAST.
IF WE LET THE PAST CONTINUE TO
NOT BE RESOLVED.
AND TO CONTINUE TO HAUNT --
IT'LL ONLY IMPACT THIS GOING
INTO THE FUTURE AND WE WILL
NEVER BE ABLE TO OVERCOME THE
CHALLENGES IN FACT.
THE CHALLENGES WILL BECOME WORSE
OR AND WERE SIR OVER THE YEARS
SO WITH THAT I SUPPORT AG ARE
SIXTEEN THANK YOU FOR THE CALL
MY COLLEAGUES FOR BRINGING IT.

HOPE ARKANSAS.
THE MY FATHER WAS ONLY ALLOWED

IMPORTANCE OF COLLEGE EDUCATION.
THE GOING TO COLLEGE WOULD MAKE
A DIFFERENCE IN YOUR LIFE IT
WOULD CHANGE THE TRAJECTORY OF
YOUR LIFE AND IF YOU TOOK
ADVANTAGE OF IT.
YOU COULD GO FAR BEYOND THE
DISCRIMINATION AND THE
CHALLENGES OF BEING AFRICAN
AMERICAN IN AMERICA. FORTY YEARS
I WAS AN EDUCATOR.
AND I DID MY BEST TO TRY TO
INSPIRE YOUNG PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
TO LOOK AT EDUCATION AS AN
OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE THEIR
LIVES TO THE CHANGES PROJECT
THREE OF THEIR LIVES.
IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO
TALK ABOUT THAT TODAY THAT WE
HAVE A GROUP WITH US CALL

THIS ORGANIZATION WAS FOUNDED BY
PARENTS AND SAN DIEGO AREA.
AND NOW STRETCHES ACROSS

AMERICANS AND OTHERS HAVE AN
OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE A SUPPORT
SYSTEM SO ESSENTIAL. TO HELP

MS GONZALEZ YOU MAIL.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER.
AB ONE SEVENTY IS INSPIRED BY
THE STORY OF XANDER PESCARA.
A HOTEL WORKER WHO WAS WASHING
DISHES AND WAS HARASSED BY HER
SUPERVISOR.
WHEN SHE WENT ABOVE HER
SUPERVISOR TO THE HOTEL MANAGER?
HE BASICALLY TOLD HER IT DIDN'T
MATTER BECAUSE NEITHER OF THOSE
WORKERS ACTUALLY WORK FOR THE
HOTEL.
THEY WERE SUBCONTRACTED OUT
DESPITE WORKING ON THE GROUNDS
OF THE HOTEL IN DOING THE
PRIMARY WORK OF THE HOTEL.
THE TREND WE'VE SEEN ESPECIALLY
IN JANITORIAL HOTEL HOUSEKEEPING
SERVICES HAS BEEN TOWARD
OUTSOURCING WORK TO STAFFING
AGENCIES.
THESE WORKERS MAY GO TO WORK
EVERY SINGLE DAY AT THE SAME
LOCATION WEARING THE SAME
UNIFORM OF THE OFFICER HOTEL
THEIR CLEAN IT REPORTING TO
MANAGERS ON SITE.
YET IF THEY'RE SEXUALLY HARASSED
THERE'S NO WAY FOR THEM TO GO.
WORKERS IN MANY CASES ARE NOT
EVEN AWARE OF THE SUB
CONTRACTING AGENCY OR WHO THEIR
ACTUAL DIRECT SUPERVISOR IS.
THESE CONTRACTING COMPANIES AND
HOTELS ARE NOT HELD RESPONSIBLE
ONE SEXUAL HARASSMENT HAPPENS ON
THEIR WATCH TO THEIR WORKERS.
WHAT IS RESULTED FROM THIS LACK
OF ACCOUNTABILITY ARE MORE
STORIES OF ABUSES IN THE
WORKPLACE PERPETRATED BY THE
SAME ACTORS OVER AND OVER AND
OVER AGAIN?
COLLEAGUES LAST YEAR WE DID A
LOT TO ADDRESS THE NEED TO
ISSUES AND WE HELPED A LOT OF
WOMEN WOMEN WHO.
YOU KNOW MIGHT HAVE A LAW DEGREE
MIGHT WORK IN HOLLYWOOD OR IN
THE HALLS OF THIS CHAMBER BUT
WHAT WE DIDN'T ADDRESS IS WOMEN
WHO WORK IN MY DISTRICT AT
HOTELS.
AND JANITORIAL COMPANIES AND
BLUE COLLAR JOBS THAT SOMETIMES
DON'T HAVE THE SAME KIND OF
RELATIONSHIP AT AT THE WORKPLACE
THAT WE WOULD HAVE IN A
TRADITIONAL ONE THAT WOULD ALLOW
THEM TO SEEK SOME SORT OF
RECOURSE.
LAST YEAR WE BROUGHT FOR THE
BILL MANY OF YOU VOTED ON THAT
BILL AND UNFORTUNATELY WAS
VETOED BY THE GOVERNOR SO WE'RE
TRYING AGAIN WE'RE TRYING TO
ENSURE THAT THE ME TOO MOVEMENT
DOES NOT LEAVE BEHIND WORKING

DECLARES APRIL AS LIMB LOSS
AWARENESS MONTH.
THERE ARE OVER TWO MILLION
INDIVIDUALS UNITED STATES LIVING
WITH LIMB LOSS IN OVER FIVE
HUNDRED AMPUTATIONS OCCUR EVERY
DAY.
DIABETES AND PERIPHERAL VASCULAR
DISEASE ARE AMONG THE LEADING
CAUSES OF WIN LOSS WITH LIFETIME
HEALTHCARE COSTS FOR INDIVIDUALS
WITH LIVE LOS EXCEEDING OVER A
HALF MILLION DOLLARS.
WHEN LOSS CAN AFFECT ALL PEOPLE
REGARDLESS OF RACE AGE GENDER?
OR SOCIAL STATUS.
ACCESS TO APPROPRIATE PROSTHETIC
CARE FOR PEOPLE LIVING WITH THEM
LOS IS VITAL TO ENABLING
INDIVIDUALS TO REACH THEIR FULL
POTENTIAL.
LIVE INDEPENDENTLY AND LIVE WELL.
LIKELY CALIFORNIA HAS ENACTED
INSURANCE FAIRNESS LAWS FOR
HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS AND
INSURANCE POLICIES THAT COVER
PROSTHETIC CARE.
WHILE TECHNOLOGY IS ADVANCING
WHEN IT COMES TO PROSTHETIC
LIMBS OBTAINING A PROSTHETIC
HAND OR LEG IS STILL A MAJOR
CHALLENGE TO THE COST AND THE
NILES FROM INSURANCE COMPANIES.
STUDIES SHOW UP 260% OF LAMB
LOSSES PREVENTABLE THROUGH
IMPROVEMENTS IN EDUCATION
NUTRITION AND HEALTH CARE.
THE NUMBER OF AMPUTATIONS WILL
DOUBLE BY TWENTY FIFTY UNLESS A
MAJOR PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGN
IS LAUNCHED IN KEY PREVENTION
INITIATIVES ARE PUT IN PLACE.

PRESENTE SIERRA SIXTY SEVEN
WHICH PROCLAIMS APRIL TWO
THOUSAND NINETEEN AS SEXUAL
ASSAULT AWARENESS MONTH IN
CALIFORNIA.
AND RECOGNIZE APRIL TWENTY
FOURTH TWENTY NINETEEN AS THEM
DAY IN CALIFORNIA.
I WANT TO START OUT BY
EXPLAINING THE HISTORY OF DENIM
DAY.
IN NINETEEN NINETY EIGHT THE
ITALIAN SUPREME COURT OVERTURNED
THE CONVICTION OF A MAN WHO
SEXUALLY ASSAULTED.
AN EIGHTEEN YEAR OLD WOMAN AFTER
THE COURT DETERMINED.
THAT BECAUSE THE VICTIM WERE
VERY VERY TIGHT JEANS SHE HAD TO
HELP HIM REMOVE THEM.
AND BY REMOVING THE JEANS IT WAS
NO LONGER RAPE BY CONTRACT
CONSENSUAL SEX.
RIGHTFULLY ENRAGED BY THE COURT
DECISION WITHIN A MATTER OF
HOURS THE WOMEN IN THE ITALIAN
PARLIAMENT.
LAUNCHED INTO MEDIA ACTION AND
PROTESTED.
BY WEARING JEANS TO WORK.
NATIONS IN STATES THROUGHOUT THE
WORLD HAVE FOLLOWED THE LEAD OF
THE ITALIAN PARLIAMENT BY
DESIGNATING THEIR OWN DENIM DAY
TO RAISE PUBLIC AWARENESS ABOUT
RAPE AND SEXUAL ASSAULT.
MEMBERS I WOULD LIKE TO NOTE
THAT.
PEOPLE OF ALL GENDERS AND AGES
ARE VICTIMS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT.
AND IT IS ESTIMATED THAT NEARLY
ONE IN TWO WOMEN AND ONE IN FIVE
MEN EXPERIENCE SEXUAL VIOLENCE.
OTHER THAN READ THROUGH THEIR
LIFETIME.
IN TWENTY TWELVE AN ESTIMATED
NINE HUNDRED AND FORTY EIGHT
THOUSAND CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS
WERE THE VICTIMS OF SOME FORM OF
SEXUAL VIOLENCE.
AND WHEN FACTORING THAT SOME
VICTIMS WERE ASSAULTED
REPEATEDLY DURING THE YEAR THE
TOTAL INCIDENTS OF SEXUAL
VIOLENCE.
IN THE STATE EXCEEDED ONE POINT
ONE MILLION. EIGHT TWENTY
EIGHTEEN REPORT FOUND THAT THE
TANGIBLE COST OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE
IN CALIFORNIA.
INCLUDING MEDICAL AND MENTAL
HEALTH CARE PREVENTION
INVESTIGATION SANCTIONING
TREATMENT AND VICTIM SERVICES
TOTAL OVER NINE BILLION DOLLARS.
ONE FULL ATTITUDES ABOUT RAPE
AND SEXUAL ASSAULT ALLOW THESE
CRIMES TO PERSIST AND ALLOW
SURVIVORS TO BE RE VICTIMIZED.
THROUGH VICTIM BLAMING ATTITUDES
AND SOMETIMES UNRESPONSIVE
GOVERNMENT SYSTEMS.

MR OF AN AUSSIE THANK YOU MISTER

I THINK EVERYONE IN THIS CHAMBER
REMEMBERS THE DEVASTATING
CAMPFIRE FROM NOVEMBER LAST YEAR
IT WAS THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE AND
THE DEADLIEST WILDFIRE
CALIFORNIA STATE HISTORY.
IT WAS ALSO THE NATION'S MOST
COSTLY DISASTER IN.
TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN ALONG WITH
MANY OF YOU I TOOK A TOUR OF THE
DEVASTATED TOWN OF PARADISE IN
JANUARY.
IT WAS AN INCREDIBLY EMOTIONAL
EXPERIENCE FOR ME TO SEE.
THE DEVASTATION IN THAT
COMMUNITY WITH WHOLE
SUBDIVISIONS SUPERMARKETS.
BURNED TO THE GROUND.
BUT THE MOST AFFECTING PIECE OF
TESTIMONY THAT WE HEARD THAT DAY
WAS FROM THE FIRST RESPONDERS
WHO WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR
EVACUATING PEOPLE OUT OF THE
TOWN OF PARADISE.
PARADISE HAS FOR EGRESS ROUTES
THE END YET THE SPREAD OF THE
FIRE WAS SO RAPID.
THAT OVER 50% OF THE STRUCTURES
THAT BURNED IN THAT FIRE WERE
IGNITED WITHIN FOUR HOURS TO THE
IGNITION OF THE FIRE.
SO THERE WAS NO TIME TO GET
PEOPLE OUT OF THE TOWN OF
PARADISE DESPITE THOSE FOR YOU
GROSS ROUTES IN FACT THE FLAMES
ADVANCED SO RAPIDLY.
THAT PEOPLE ABANDONED THEIR
VEHICLES AND ALL FOUR OF THOSE
ROUTES WERE COMPLETELY CLOGGED
WE HEARD SURVIVORS TALK ABOUT
SHELTERING IN THE MIDDLE OF
MEADOWS.
SHELTERING IN THEIR VEHICLES IN
THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS
BECAUSE THAT WAS THE BIGGEST
STRETCH OF ON VEGETATED GROUND
THAT THEY COULD FIND AND
THANKFULLY FOR MOST OF THEM OF
THAT STRATEGY WORKED.
BUT WE WILL NOT BE SO LUCKY IN
THE FUTURE.

NARROWLY CRAFTED EXEMPTION TO
