Salaam John,
This week, the U.S. State Department formally recognized the genocide in Sudan and imposed new sanctions on the leader of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), Mohammad Hamdan Daglo Mousa (Hemedti). Emgage Action strongly supports this critical step toward holding those responsible for the atrocities accountable and working to end the devastating conflict in Sudan.
For the past year, we’ve been pushing for stronger U.S. action on Sudan. Our efforts include meetings with key lawmakers such as Representatives Sara Jacobs and Dan Kildee and Senators Chris Van Hollen and Chris Coons. These discussions focused on the urgent need for legislative solutions to address the ongoing violence.

In September, we hosted a congressional briefing with partner organizations, F rom Conflict to Catastrophe: Sudan’s Escalating Humanitarian and Refugee Crisis where experts like Kate Hixon from Amnesty International and Dr. Mustafa Sharif from Texas Southern University, shared actionable recommendations to guide U.S. policy.
We’ve also led advocacy campaigns urging Congress to support a bill that would prohibit defense exports to the UAE, preventing the RSF from being armed, and have backed other key legislation aimed at holding those responsible for the Sudan conflict accountable and addressing the crisis. In August, we hosted a virtual webinar featuring Dr. Sharif who provided valuable insights into the history and context of Sudan’s conflict.

These efforts are made possible thanks to the dedication of our coalition partners and, most importantly, your invaluable support.. With this important milestone, we urge the administration to continue strengthening its humanitarian response and support for the Sudanese people. Together we can amplify the call for justice and accountability.
In solidarity,
