Congress makes the following findings:
(1) On July 22, 2004, the House of Representatives and the
Senate declared that the atrocities occurring in Darfur,
Sudan are genocide.
(2) On September 9, 2004, Secretary of State Colin L.
Powell stated before the Committee on Foreign Relations of
the Senate, ``[w]hen we reviewed the evidence compiled by our
team, along with other information available to the State
Department, we concluded that genocide has been committed in
Darfur and that the Government of Sudan and the [Janjaweed]
bear responsibility--and genocide may still be occurring''.
(3) President George W. Bush, in an address before the
United Nations General Assembly on September 21, 2004,
stated, ``[a]t this hour, the world is witnessing terrible
suffering and horrible crimes in the Darfur region of Sudan,
crimes my government has concluded are genocide''.
(4) On July 30, 2004, the United Nations Security Council
passed Security Council Resolution 1556, calling upon the
Government of Sudan to disarm the Janjaweed militias and to
apprehend and bring to justice Janjaweed leaders and their
associates who have incited and carried out violations of
human rights and international humanitarian law and carried
out other atrocities in the Darfur region.
(5) On September 18, 2004, the United Nations Security
Council passed Security Council Resolution 1564, determining
that the Government of Sudan had failed to meet its
obligations under Security Council Resolution 1556, calling
for a military flight ban in and over the Darfur region,
demanding the names of Janjaweed militiamen disarmed and
arrested for verification, establishing an International
Commission of Inquiry into violations of international
humanitarian and human rights laws, and threatening sanctions
should the Government of Sudan fail to fully comply with
Security Council Resolutions 1556 and 1564.
(6) United Nations Security Council Resolution 1564
declares that if the Government of Sudan ``fails to comply
fully'' with Security Council Resolutions 1556 and 1564, the
Security Council shall consider taking ``additional
measures'' against the Government of Sudan ``as contemplated
in Article 41 of the Charter of the United Nations, such as
actions to affect Sudan's petroleum sector or individual
members of the Government of Sudan, in order to take
effective action to obtain such full compliance and
cooperation''.
(7) United Nations Security Council Resolution 1564 also
``welcomes and supports the intention of the African Union to
enhance and augment its monitoring mission in Darfur'' and
``urges member states to support the African Union in these
efforts, including by providing all equipment, logistical,

the rapid expansion of the African Union Mission''.
(8) On February 1, 2005, the United Nations released the
Report of the International Commission of Inquiry on Darfur

2005, which stated that, ``[g]overnment forces and militias
conducted indiscriminate attacks, including killing of
civilians, torture, enforced disappearances, destruction of
villages, rape and other forms of sexual violence, pillaging
and forced displacement throughout Darfur'', that such ``acts
were conducted on a widespread and systematic basis, and
therefore may amount to crimes against humanity'', and that
the ``magnitude and large-scale nature of some crimes against
humanity as well as their

[[Page S3497]]

consistency over a long period of time, necessarily imply
that these crimes result from a central planning operation''.
(9) The Report of the International Commission of Inquiry
on Darfur to the United Nations Secretary-General notes that,
pursuant to its mandate and in the course of its work, the UN
Commission collected information relating to individual
perpetrators of acts constituting ``violations of
international human rights law and international humanitarian
law, including crimes against humanity and war crimes'' and
that the UN Commission has delivered to the Secretary-General
of the United Nations a sealed file of those named by the UN
Commission with the recommendation that the ``file be handed
over to a competent Prosecutor''.
(10) On March 24, 2005, the United Nations Security Council
passed Security Council Resolution 1590, establishing the
United Nations Mission in Sudan (UNMIS) consisting of 10,000
military personnel and 715 civilian police personnel. The
mandate of UNMIS includes to ``closely and continuously
liaise and coordinate at all levels with the African Union
Mission in Sudan (AMIS) with a view towards expeditiously
reinforcing the effort to foster peace in Darfur, especially
with regard to the Abuja peace process and the African Union
Mission in Sudan''. Security Council Resolution 1590 also
urged the Secretary-General and United Nations High
Commissioner for Human Rights to increase the number and
deployment rate of human rights monitors to Darfur.
(11) On March 29, 2005, the United Security Council passed
Security Council Resolution 1591, establishing a Committee of
the Security Council and a Panel of Experts to identify
individuals who have impeded the peace process, constitute a
threat to stability in Darfur and the region, commit
violations of international humanitarian or human rights law
or other atrocities, or who are responsible for offensive
overflights, and calling on member states to prevent those
individuals identified from entry into or transit of their
territories and to freeze those individuals non-exempted
assets.
(12) On March 31, 2005, the United Nations Security Council
passed Security Council Resolution 1593, referring the
situation in Darfur since July 1, 2002, to the Prosecutor of
the International Criminal Court (ICC) with the proviso that
personnel from a state outside Sudan not a party to the Rome

instance.

SEC. _. SENSE OF THE SENATE ON THE EARNED INCOME TAX CREDIT.

(a) Findings.--The Senate makes the following findings:
(1) In an effort to provide support to military families,
this Act includes an important increase in the maximum
payable benefit under Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance
from $150,000 to $400,000.
(2) In an effort to provide support to military families,
this Act includes an important increase in the death gratuity
from $12,000 to $100,000.
(3) In an effort to provide support to military families,
this Act includes an important increase in the maximum
Reserve Affiliation bonus to $10,000.
(4) The Federal earned income tax credit (EITC) under
section 32 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 provides
critical tax relief and support to military as well as
civilian families. In 2003, approximately 21,000,000 families
benefitted from the EITC.
(5) Nearly 160,000 active duty members of the armed forces,
11 percent of all active duty members, currently are eligible
for the EITC, based on analyses of data from the Department
of Defense and the Government Accountability Office.
(6) Congress acted in 2001 and 2004 to expand EITC
eligibility to more military personnel, recognizing that
military families and their finances are intensely affected
by war.
(7) With over 300,000 National Guard and reservists called
to active duty since September 11, 2001, the need for tax
assistance is greater than ever.
(8) Census data shows that the EITC lifted 4,900,000 people
out of poverty in 2002, including 2,700,000 children. The
EITC lifts more children out of poverty than any other single
program or category of programs.
(b) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate
that--
(1) Congress should take steps necessary to support our
troops and their families;
(2) it is not in the interests of our troops and their
families to reduce the earned income tax credit under section
32 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986; and
(3) the conference committee for H. Con. Res. 96, the
concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2006,
should not assume any reduction in the earned income tax
credit in the budget process this year, as provided in such
resolution as passed by the House of Representatives.
