March 2. 1999. Sudanese women and children are being bought and sold as we sit and stand here today. They are kidnapped by slave raiders who sweep into the destabilized regions following the government attacks. They capture the women and children and then they take them off for slavery. I want to commend my colleagues attention to this excellent booklet which hopefully will be sent to every Congressional office from the U.S. Committee For Refugees. Tomorrow they will announce a nationwide public awareness campaign about Sudan. I urge the Members of this body to get a copy of this booklet.
