The conflict in northern Uganda does not receive much attention in the press; and, frankly, it does not receive the attention it deserves.

I want to just take a moment and thank my colleague, the gentleman from California (Mr. Lantos), for his support on this resolution, but wider than that, for his leadership on so many of the most vexing and troublesome of gross human rights violations around the world which he has consistently brought to the world's attention.
