SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Comprehensive Peace for Sudan Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The Government of Sudan has engaged in an orchestrated 
        campaign of genocide in Darfur, Sudan, and has severely 
        restricted humanitarian and human rights workers' access to 
        Darfur in an attempt to inflict further harm on the Fur, 
        Masalit, and Zaghawa people of Darfur and to prevent the 
        collection of evidence of war crimes and crimes against 
        humanity.
            (2) As a result of this campaign, as many as 30,000 people 
        have been killed, more than 1,000,000 people have been 
        displaced within Sudan, and approximately 200,000 have been 
        made refugees in Chad.
            (3) As many as 320,000 people may die unless humanitarian 
        aid is immediately delivered to the affected individuals.
            (4) The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights 
        issued a report which ``identified... massive human rights 
        violations in Darfur perpetrated by the Government of Sudan and 
        its proxy militia, which may constitute war crimes and/or 
        crimes against humanity''.
            (5) The Government of Chad, under President Idriss Deby, 
        has served an important role in facilitating a renewable 
        ``humanitarian cease-fire'' between the Government of Sudan and 
        the two rebel groups challenging that Government in Darfur, the 
        Justice and Equality Movement and the Sudan Liberation 
        Movement, and has been a crucial partner in permitting 
        humanitarian assistance to reach refugees who have crossed from 
        Darfur to Chad in the tens of thousands.
            (6) The cooperation and mediation of the SPLM is critical 
        to bringing about a political settlement between the 
        Government, the Sudanese Liberation Army, and the Justice and 
        Equality Movement.
            (7) Practical implementation of a comprehensive peace 
        agreement between the SPLM and the Government of Sudan is 
        impossible without the implementation of a peace agreement for 
        Darfur.

SEC. 3. DEFINITIONS.

    In this Act:
            (1) Appropriate congressional committees.--The term 
        ``appropriate congressional committees'' means the Committee on 
        Foreign Relations of the Senate and the Committee on 
        International Relations of the House of Representatives.

              DARFUR.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the United Nations Security Council should immediately 
        pass a resolution--
                    (A) condemning the actions of the Government of 
                Sudan in Darfur; and
                    (B) setting out specific actions that such 
                Government must take to avoid the reimposition of 
                sanctions;
            (2) the United States Ambassador at Large for War Crimes 
        should travel to the region to investigate allegations of war 
        crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide brought against 
        the Government of Sudan;
            (3) the President should immediately name a new Special 
        Envoy to Sudan whose responsibilities include support for 
        conflict mitigation throughout Sudan;
            (4) the SPLM should take advantage of the opportunity 
        afforded by the May 26, 2004, signing of the three protocols to 
        help broker a political settlement to the conflict in Darfur;
            (5) restrictions pursuant to Executive Order 13067 (50 
        U.S.C. 1701 note) should not be lifted unless there is peace in 
        Darfur; and
            (6) upon implementation of a peace agreement in Darfur, the 
        signing of a comprehensive peace agreement between the SPLM and 
        the Government of Sudan, and full cooperation from the 
        Government of Sudan on the war against terrorism, the 
        Government of the United States should immediately begin 
        discussions of the necessary steps to normalize relations with 
        Sudan, including the lifting of all economic and political 
        sanctions.
