                    WELCOME TO ARCHBISHOP BARSAMIAN

  (Mr. BARCA of Wisconsin asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BARCA of Wisconsin. Mr. Speaker, I also would like to join in 
welcoming Archbishop Barsamian to the House of Representatives and 
thank him for his words of inspiration that he offered here in the 
House just a few minutes ago.
  Hopefully it will serve as some guidance when our good colleague, the 
gentleman from California [Mr. Lehman] leads us tonight in remembrance 
of the Armenian genocide, just as last week we recognized the Holocaust 
of European Jews.
  This Sunday is National Armenian Remembrance Day to help the world to 
never forget the horrific genocide against humanity that took place 
between 1915 and 1923 that left 1.5 million Armenian victims.
