01/08/20 - Rep. Suozzi tweeted "Today, I met with representatives from @TCCNewYork the largest Turkish American grassroots organization in the country. We discussed the ongoing human rights abuses by the Erdogan regime and its impact on Turkish Americans in our communities." View the tweet here.

10/30/19 - Rep. Suozzi posted the following to Facebook: "More than 100 years ago, the Ottoman government systematically exterminated 1.5 million Armenians. To deny this, or any genocide is the first step in the next genocide.

Yesterday, I voted for the bipartisan H.Res. 296, Affirming the United States Record on the Armenian Genocide.

This bill would commemorate the Armenian Genocide through official recognition and remembrance; reject efforts to associate the United States government with denial of the Armenian Genocide or any other genocide, and encourage education and public understanding of the facts of the Armenian Genocide."

10/10/19 - Rep. Suozzi posted the following to Facebook: "The Administration’s oscillating decisions with regard to the U.S. presence in Syria and longstanding policy in Turkey poses a danger to our women and men in uniform and upends regional security.

This change leaves our Kurdish allies—who have helped take on ISIS—betrayed. I join colleagues on both sides of the aisle in urging the Administration to reverse this misguided decision." View the Facebook post here.
