An action alert from our friends at the San Francisco Bay Area Darfur Coalition:

This week, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s 11-day trip to Africa does not include a visit to Sudan. But, questions such as those from the press on her stop in Kenya can elicit her views. See http://tiny.cc/pSwYB for her comments on the ICC’s indictment of Sudan President al-Bashir.

Secretary Clinton wants to hear from you, too. We suggest sending her any or all of the following questions:

1. Do you agree that the U.S. policy review on Sudan is urgently needed and must include specific negative consequences for non-performance of steps necessary to achieve peace in Darfur and implementation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement?

2. Do you agree that Sudan must remain on the U.S. list of State Sponsors of Terrorism at this time?

3. Are you telling the African leaders you meet that refusing to arrest President al Bashir upon a visit to their country pursuant to the ICC warrant could complicate their relationship with the U.S.?

Please, contact the State Department today:

1. Send a text to 90822.
2. Email using the form at http://tiny.cc/oyk83.
3. Post on the State Department Facebook page.
4. Send a public reply to the State Department’s Twitter profile.

Thank you, and please tell a friend!
