This morning the the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) is holding a press conference with Rep. Frank Wolf, Rep. Donald Payne and Rep. Chris Smith.
Members of the USCIRF recently returned from Sudan and witnessed Khartoum’s crackdown on peaceful Sudanese protesters. These protesters, including high-ranking members of the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement, had gathered in the streets to press Sudan’s President Bashir and his National Congress Party to demand passage of important laws by the National Assembly.
Update: The press conference has concluded. See all of our live-tweets after the jump or read a complete write-up of the press conference on our blog.
