Mr. Speaker. it is. without a doubt. that the supposed agreement on Darfur in Sudan that was supposed to bring some reconciliation and relief to the Darfurian refugees is of little value at this time. The agreement is crumbling. the refugees are desperate. and. frankly. I think it is crucial that we rely more upon the Members of this body asking the administration to again intercede. We understand that there has been an envoy that has been sent. but there is no understanding of his or her purpose to be able to solidify this agreement that is falling apart. It would be far better for this Congress to address this as a collective body. because it is urgent. It is a crisis. The Darfurian refugees are suffering. There is violence and there is no relief. There needs to be more funding for the African Union peacekeepers.
