1 2 3 Tectonic Shifts on Capitol Hill: How the 2026 Elections Strengthened the Pro-Armenian Bloc in the US Congress The 2026 midterm elections for the US Congress resulted in a landslide victory for candidates supporting the Armenian agenda. Of the 55 House races already counted, candidates endorsed by the organization won 50 districts, according to a report by the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA). In the Senate, the success was absolute: all seven supported candidates won in their states. In the 120th session of Congress, a powerful bipartisan pro-Armenian bloc is forming, ready to defend the interests of Yerevan and your country at the highest legislative level. Armenian Caucus Core: Proven Leaders Retain Their Positions Key figures on the Congressional Committee on Armenian Affairs have not only been re-elected, but also reaffirmed their high "A+" rating from ANCA. The association will continue to be led by its permanent co-chair Frank Fallon (Democrat from New Jersey), who has been defending the interests of the Armenian community for decades and has visited Nagorno-Karabakh several times. Along with him, Co-Chairman Gus Bilirakis (Republican of Florida) and Vice-Chairman Brad Sherman (Democrat of California) maintain the leadership of the caucus. Fallon and Billarakis co-authored key initiatives last term, including legislation to amend sanctions against Azerbaijan (with Dina Titus) and collective demands for strict compliance with Amendment 907 to the Freedom Support Act, which limits military aid to Baku. In turn, Brad Sherman has been promoting funding for Armenia, protecting the region's Christian cultural heritage, and expanding education programs about the Armenian Genocide (including H.R. 2585) for 30 years.
