                    THE HUMANITARIAN CRISIS IN SUDAN

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. CHARLES B. RANGEL

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 13, 2004

  Mr. RANGEL. Mr. Speaker, the humanitarian crisis in Sudan must not be 
overshadowed by current world events. We must address the ethnic 
cleansing and refugee situation with urgency, not just with words but 
with action. There is a moral obligation to pressure the Sudanese 
government to end the atrocities in western Sudan and ensure adequate 
humanitarian aid reaches the refugees in Chad. As the world remembers 
the 10th anniversary of the genocide in Rwanda, we cannot allow this to 
happen again.
