Opponents of the impeachment of US President Donald trump tried to protest during the event at Glendale City Hall on December 14 and congressman Adam Schiff was also present.

The event was held amid the adoption by the Senate of the Armenian Genocide resolution, ABC7 reported.

Schiff said it "is a shame and disrespectful to the community and the memory of those who were lost. People have a right to picket me...but they shouldn't show disrespect at a community event like that that wasn't about me."
