Bill Summary
A BILL To require the imposition of sanctions with respect to conflict in Sudan, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill aims to address the conflict in Sudan by requiring the imposition of sanctions on foreign persons involved in perpetrating atrocities, blocking humanitarian aid, or violating the UN arms embargo on Darfur. It also calls for the United States to lead and coordinate international efforts to establish an inclusive peace process, facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid, develop a plan to prevent mass atrocities, pursue accountability for human rights abuses, and support an inclusive transition to civilian-led democracy in Sudan. The bill also creates a Special Presidential Envoy for Sudan to coordinate U.S. diplomatic efforts and outlines several other provisions to empower Sudanese women and youth, prohibit the sale of major defense equipment to countries supporting Sudanese armed forces, and require reporting on the use of U.S. weapons in the conflict.
