The California Armenian Legislative Caucus Foundation Condemns Dr. Oz’s Targeting Armenian Americans
Sacramento, CA – The California Armenian Legislative Caucus Foundation condemns Dr. Oz targeting Armenian American owned California businesses for accusations of fraud. In a clip released, Dr. Oz is seen cruising through Los Angeles implying that Armenian businesses are connected to fraud schemes of organized crime by the Armenian mafia.
Chair of the California Armenian Legislative Caucus Foundation Assemblymember John Harabedian (D-Pasadena) says, “Dr. Oz knows a thing or two about fraud. He’s made millions promoting magic pills and miracle cures, betraying the Americans who trusted him. The Trump Administration is stripping healthcare benefits from millions of Americans while Dr. Oz is cruising around Los Angeles demonizing the Armenian community. Healthcare fraud is a real problem, and it starts from the top.”
California is home to the largest Armenian American population in the United States, and Armenians living in California have enriched our state for over 100 years through their leadership and contribution in business, agriculture, academia, government, medicine, technology, the arts, and more.
The California Armenian Legislative Caucus Foundation serves as a forum for members from the California Senate and Assembly to identify key issues affecting Armenian Americans and develop and empower the Armenian American community throughout California. The Foundation encourages advocacy and participation in cultural, educational, and community efforts in California. Through advocacy, the Foundation strives to ensure that California Armenian American’s voices are heard and given a platform.
