 On October 29, 2019, the full House of Representatives finally passed the resolution by a vote of 405-11.On October 11, 2007, regarding a proposed U.S. House resolution 106, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi said that the measure would be brought to a vote because "While that may have been a long time ago, genocide is taking place now in Darfur, it did within recent memory in Rwanda, so as long as there is genocide there is need to speak out against it ..." However, later she was forced to backtrack from a pledge to bring the measure for a vote because of a waning support for this resolution, since many believe that "angering Turkey would hamper efforts in Iraq".A 2015 version of the resolution had 212 co-sponsors, compared to 236 co-sponsors, which it had in early 2007.
