Thank Christopher Dodd for helping to protect civilians and save lives. Remind the senator, however, that the genocide continues and we still need strong support to end the atrocities in Darfur. We need Christopher Dodd to keep talking and writing about Darfur, ensuring that it remains a key issue for Congress.
