No action recorded in 1 year, 6 months. The structural status reflects an earlier milestone, not current activity.

This bill requires or authorizes certain actions related to the conflict in Sudan, including requiring sanctions on certain foreign persons (individuals or entities) and authorizing U.S. assistance for a multinational force in Sudan. The bill requires the President to select various sanctions to impose on each foreign person the President determines (1) has knowingly perpetrated, directed, or enabled genocide, war crimes, or crimes against humanity against civilians in Sudan since April 2023; (2) has knowingly engaged in systematic blocking of and interference with the delivery of humanitarian aid to civilians in Sudan since April 2023; or (3) is violating the UN arms embargo on Darfur, a region in western Sudan. Sanctions that may be imposed include blocking of property, blocking of visas, or bans on loans. The bill also authorizes the Department of State to provide assistance to deploy and sustain a multinational force to advance civilian protection, facilitate humanitarian operations, and monitor any prospective ceasefire in Sudan. No major defense equipment may be sold, exported, or transferred to any country the President identifies as supporting the Sudanese Armed Forces (Sudan's military) or the Rapid Support Forces (a paramilitary force in conflict with the Sudanese Armed Forces). The State Department and the U.S. Mission to the United Nations must advocate for and support certain policies in multilateral bodies, such as unimpeded humanitarian access in Sudan and the documentation of atrocities. The bill extends the position of special envoy for Sudan through December 23, 2029.
