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.

(3) the President should immediately name a new Special

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
