Madam Speaker. during this message hour to pause to address an ongoing crisis in Darfur. For many years now we have seen the devastating atrocities taking place in the Darfur region of Sudan. With the support of the Sudanese Government. the janjaweed militia has ravaged the people of Darfur. raping. torturing. murdering and forcing hundreds of thousands of Darfuris to flee to refugee camps in neighboring Chad and the Central African Republic. We saw the same devastation in Rwanda over a decade ago. and the American people have made their voices heard on this issue. vowing never again to remain silent when humanity is threatened. The Congressional Black Caucus has been a leader on this issue.
