  • Ask your representative to support the Sudan Democratic Transition, Accountability, and Financial Transparency Act of 2020. Before signing, find out if your Representative has already sponsored the bill here.

  • Revitalize the Sudan and South Sudan Caucus in Congress - Sudan and South Sudan are both at pivotal moments in their history. U.S. Congress can and should play a positive role in supporting efforts for peace, justice, and accountability in Sudan and South Sudan. The first step is identify the leadership roles. Congresswoman Lee (D-CA) has already agreed to co-chair but we are still seeking a Republican leadership. SIGN THE LETTER to Congressman Fortenberry, asking him to help lead in revitalizing the Caucus.

SUPPORT YOUTH PEACEBUILDERS!
Affected by armed conflicts and violence, yet all too often ignored and overlooked. Youth MUST be included in U.S. peacebuilding efforts around the world. The youth of Sudan have already shown the world what a difference their efforts can make when they led a nonviolent movement to end Bashir’s 30-year dictatorship. Let Congress know that you support the Youth, Peace and Security Act!
