ACTION: Tell your Representative to sponsor House Resolution 1011
[From the Genocide Intervention Network:]
With the humanitarian crisis stemming from Darfur continuing to destabilize not only Sudan, but the surrounding region, including Chad and the Central African Republic, it has become increasingly urgent that the international community develop, fund, and implement a “comprehensive regional strategy.”
The United States and President Bush have the abilit3y and responsibility to protect by using their influential position on the United Nations Security Council and financial ability to provide humanitarian assistance to the region.
House Resolution 1011 urges President Bush to stick to his promises by:
“Urging the UN Security Council to implement sanctions against the government of Sudan for its detrimental actions and the continued destabilization of the region, and continue US humanitarian assistance to the refugees and internally displaced people in Chad and the Central African Republic.”
This week, ask your Representative to call on President Bush to stick to his promises and implement a comprehensive regional strategy by co-sponsoring House Resolution 1011. CLICK HERE to send an email to your Representative.
