Sudan

Support U.S. action to stop the violence, deliver aid, and hold perpetrators accountable.

The people of Sudan are enduring one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world today. In just one year, the conflict between the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) has killed tens of thousands and displaced over 15 million people. Darfur is once again the site of mass atrocities, with reports of genocide, sexual violence, and starvation used as weapons of war.

Darfur is once again the site of mass atrocities, with reports of genocide, sexual violence, and starvation used as weapons of war.

Sudan Crisis Visual

This is a critical moment. Sudan is facing a genocide, and Congress must act. Take a moment—right now—to complete all three actions below. Each one is essential to stopping the violence, cutting off the weapons, and ensuring lasting peace.

1. Halt U.S. Arms to UAE Fueling Sudan War

2. U.S. Plan for Peace and Aid in Sudan

3. Urge UN to Block Weapons Flowing into Sudan

Stop U.S. Arms Sales to the UAE

H.R.2059 — Blocks arms sales to the UAE over its support for the RSF’s atrocities in Sudan.

Support U.S. Strategy for Sudan Peace

H.R.1939 — Outlines a U.S. plan for justice, humanitarian aid, and civilian-led diplomacy.

Expand the UN Arms Embargo

S.Res.126 — Urges the UN to stop all weapons from entering Sudan and fueling the war.

Last month, Emgage Action mobilized communities and convened experts for Sudan Advocacy Week and a powerful webinar reflecting on the 2003 Save Darfur campaign. With voices like Professor Rebecca Hamilton and Omer Ismail, and the tireless efforts of over 20 volunteers, we brought the stories of Sudanese survivors directly to over 50 congressional offices. Their impact is already moving the needle—but we need your voice to sustain the momentum.

Legislation to Support Sudan

Below are three critical legislative efforts that demand immediate action. Each addresses a unique aspect of the crisis in Sudan—from halting the flow of weapons to supporting humanitarian aid and justice for atrocity crimes. Please take the time to act on all three.

This bill blocks U.S. arms sales to the UAE for its role in supplying weapons to Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces (RSF)—the group behind ethnic cleansing in Darfur. The RSF’s crimes have been extensively documented by Amnesty International and others.

Key goals:

– End U.S. military exports to the UAE tied to Sudan conflict

– Pressure the UAE to halt its backing of armed militias

– Signal U.S. opposition to external actors enabling atrocities

This bill outlines a comprehensive U.S. strategy for peace and accountability in Sudan.

– Establishes a Special Envoy to coordinate Sudan diplomacy

– Mandates sanctions for human rights violators and arms traffickers

– Supports women, youth, and civil society in peacebuilding

– Expands humanitarian access and evidence preservation

This bipartisan Senate resolution urges the UN Security Council to expand its arms embargo beyond Darfur to all of Sudan—blocking weapons from reaching the RSF and Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF).

– Calls for a nationwide arms embargo

– Demands an immediate ceasefire and improved aid delivery

– Condemns ongoing genocide against ethnic minorities

– Encourages stronger enforcement mechanisms and multilateral cooperation
