House Set to Introduce Pappas’ Oxi Day Resolution

U.S. Rep. Chris Pappas (D-NH) plans to introduce a bipartisan-backed congressional resolution to honor Greece’s resistance to Axis Powers in World War II.

“In honor of the Greek’s refusal to submit to fascism, and their integral role in the eventual downfall of the Axis powers, we invite you to cosponsor our bipartisan resolution, which supports the designation of October 28, 2021, as Oxi Day, and encourages related celebrations and commemorations around the world,” Rep. Pappas, wrote to House colleagues in a letter co-signed by Hellenic Caucus Co-Chairs U.S. Reps. Gus Bilirakis (R-FL) and Carolyn Maloney (D-NY).

On behalf of the American Hellenic Council, we are proud to support Representative Chris Pappas (D-NH) on his sponsorship of a Congressional Resolution recognizing October 28th as “Oxi Day” for Greece’s heroic stand against the Axis powers in World War II.
