An OPEN LETTER to Arizona Armenians

Dear Friends,

I'm writing to you today with urgent news from Washington, and a request for immediate action.

Arizona Congressman Abraham Hamadeh is leading the charge on Capitol Hill to send your U.S. tax dollars to blood-thirsty Azerbaijan. He wants to repeal Section 907 – rewarding Azerbaijan’s oil-rich dictatorship for ethnically cleansing Artsakh, holding Armenian hostages, occupying Armenian lands, and desecrating Christian holy sites.

Hamadeh represents Arizona's 8th Congressional District, a West Valley suburban area of Phoenix, but this is an issue that matters to all our friends from across the Grand Canyon State.

Congress can act on this at any moment – the earlier he hears from you the better.

Contacting him is quick, easy, and hassle-free:

Here are three things you can do right now.

1) Call his office:

Washington, DC: (202) 225-4576
Arizona: (623) 776-7911)

Sample script:

My name is ___, from Arizona. I'm calling to urge Representative Hamadeh to stop attacking Section 907 of the Freedom Support Act. The oil-rich Azerbaijani government neither needs nor deserves my tax dollars.

Instead of rewarding a genocidal government with foreign aid, you should be holding it accountable with sanctions.

2) Post on X:

Sample post:

Stop rewarding genocidal Azerbaijan with my American tax dollars.

and : Enforce Section 907, sanction Aliyev, free Armenian hostages, return Artsakh refugees, end Azerbaijani occupation, and protect Christian churches.

3) Share this alert

Forward it to family and friends – Armenians and non-Armenians. Every call, every post, every message matters.

Sirov,

Aram Suren Hamparian
Executive Director, ANCA

PS – Please drop me a note if you’re interested in learning more about how our Arizona Armenian community and coalition partners can make an even bigger difference for our homeland and heritage.

: The Trump Administration signals its intent to extend the waiver of Section 907 of the FREEDOM Support Act, clearing the way for continued U.S. aid to Azerbaijan.

"President Trump continues to make a mockery of his America First promise by greenlighting foreign aid to Azerbaijan - shipping U.S. tax dollars to an oil-rich, genocidal dictatorship," stated ANCA Executive Director Aram Hamparian.

"A regime that holds Armenian hostages, occupies Armenian territory, bulldozes Christian churches, and blocks the return of refugees to Artsakh.

Azerbaijan's ruling Aliyev family - a clan with net worth in the tens of billions of dollars - neither needs nor deserves the generosity of the American people," concluded Hamparian.

The Senior Bureau Official for Legislative Affairs at the State Department transmitted the determination, titled "Extension of Section 907 Waiver," to the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. It was printed in the Congressional Record on July 28th (Vol. 172, No. 123, EC-4220) under Executive and Other Communications.

WASHINGTON, DC – Marriott Bonvoy has dropped its controversial tourism package to ethnically cleansed Artsakh in the wake of a five-day international human rights campaign led by the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) and its counterparts and coalition partners around the world. The fou...

Marriott Bonvoy has removed a tourism package to ethnically cleansed, Azerbaijani-occupied Artsakh following an international campaign by the Armenian National Committee and the global Armenian diaspora. The package, exposed by the Center for Armenian Research and Analysis, offered travellers a 14-hour tour across Artsakh, including the occupied cities of Shushi and Stepanakert, while allowing users to earn Marriott Bonvoy points.

The listing made no mention of Artsakh’s Armenian history, Azerbaijan’s genocidal blockade, the September 2023 ethnic cleansing, or the forced displacement of its indigenous Armenian population. It referred to the region as the “Karabakh zone” and described the Armenian monument “We Are Our Mountains” only as a “notable example of regional stone art and architecture”.

Following the campaign, Marriott reversed course in under 120 hours.

FYI: The Azerbaijani Parliament is attacking the ANCA for the "crime" of seeking Baku's immediate and unconditional release of Armenian hostages.

07/26/2026

In a landmark vote, the US House Foreign Affairs Committee has called on Azerbaijan to immediately and unconditionally release all Armenian hostages held in Baku. The amendment to H.R. 9087 was adopted by a 44 to 7 vote on July 22. The measure was backed by the Armenian National Committee of America and led by Congressional Armenian Caucus Vice Chair Rep. Brad Sherman, with the support of Committee Chairman Brian Mast.

The vote places the Committee on record in demanding the release of Armenian prisoners of war and political prisoners illegally held by Azerbaijan.
