On the recordJuly 15, 2019
For the purpose of closing. Mr. Speaker, I again want to thank Mr. Kildee, Mr. Bilirakis, and, of course the Speaker pro tempore, Mr. McGovern. What happens in Sudan in the coming weeks and months is a high priority for the United States. It is in our national security interest to support a peaceful, civilian-led political transition in Sudan and is consistent with our values to support the democratic aspirations of a people who have suffered under a brutal, violent rule for so long. I urge all Members to join me in supporting this important legislation, and I yield back the balance of my time.
