The 20th century genocide killed more than 1 million people, and the Turkish government still denies it occurred.
Senator Lindsey Graham has come under fire for blocking a Senate resolution acknowledging the Armenian Genocide, nixing the House recognition of the 20th century Ottoman Empire-era massacres that passed last month by a 405-11 vote.
Democratic Senator Bob Menendez requested consent to pass the resolution, The Hill reported, seeking"official recognition and remembrance" of the anti-Armenian campaign that killed more than 1 million people from 1915 to 1923.
