From the Genocide Intervention Network:
Today, take some time to make sure that Sudan is a top priority from Day 1 of Barack Obama’s presidency.
Join student activists across the country by calling 1-800-GENOCIDE (1-800-436-6243) to speak with your Senator’s office.
In early January, the Senate has a unique opportunity to make Sudan a priority for the incoming Obama administration. How? President-elect Obama’s nominees to to key foreign policy positions — like Secretary of State and UN Ambassador — cannot take office until they are confirmed by the Senate. Nominees Hillary Clinton and Susan Rice will have to answer questions from Senators about their priorities and plans during confirmation hearings.
Call 1-800-GENOCIDE (1-800-436-6243) right now and ask your Senator to make sure the nominees lay out their Sudan plans during the confirmation hearings.
The nominees will appear before the Senate in January. Will your Senator ask about Sudan?
Call 1-800-GENOCIDE (1-800-436-6243) and speak to your Senator today!
