Its path through Congress

  1. Introduced

A House resolution is the House speaking for itself: stating a position, honouring someone, or setting its own rules. Adopting it is the whole process. Once the House agrees to it, it is officially the House's word; it is not a law, so the Senate and the President have no part in it.

What this bill would do

This resolution condemns attacks on civilians occurring within the Sudanese civil war. It highlights the extreme human suffering caused by the fighting between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces. The resolution calls for an immediate end to external material support for these warring parties. It further urges the Trump Administration to take action to end external support and negotiate an end to the war. Finally, it seeks to restore civilian-led democratic governance and support post-conflict recovery efforts.
