The House of Representatives ended its two-year term Wednesday without taking up the matter [opposed by the Obama administration to appease Turkey]. It is unlikely to be passed when Republicans take control of the chamber in January because the new House speaker, John Boehner, opposes it.

From Deutsche Presse-Agentur
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi did not schedule the resolution for a vote on the last day of House activities before recessing for the holiday break, effectively killing the measure until at least next year.
The White House and State Department have lobbied hard against it, fearing it would badly damage relations with Turkey.
The proponents have vowed to try again next year, but it will be more difficult with Republicans poised to take control of the House in January

Comments: Reminder - Christian Armenian victims of the genocide and Turkish Muslim perpetrators.
Where are all those liberals and left-wingers that like apologizing and demonizing every little historical wrongs Christians and the West has ever done?
This is the usual double-standards for the hyper-sensitive Muslims, and giving in to security [terrorist] blackmail by both the left and right.
But what goes around, comes around for the U.S. too. See here.
