“The United States must do more to end this war. Today, I have joined Rep. Pramila Jayapal and Rep. Sara Jacobs in introducing a resolution denouncing the conflict, and Rep. Jonathan Jackson and Rep. Sara Jacobs in introducing a bill requiring a determination on designating the Rapid Support Forces as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist Organization. Congress should quickly advance these measures, which call on the Trump administration to take clear, decisive action to stop this senseless violence and secure an agreement to end this brutal conflict.

“I also reiterate my call for the House Foreign Affairs Committee to mark up my U.S. Engagement in Sudanese Peace Act, which bans U.S. arms sales to any country supplying the warring parties, holds perpetrators of atrocities accountable, and mandates a comprehensive U.S. strategy to end this horrific conflict. Another year of pain and suffering for the people of Sudan is not inevitable. There is a better path forward with concentrated U.S. action.”
