The PEACE in Sudan Act would authorize sanctions and reporting requirements to pressure both sides of Sudan's civil war toward peace.

The bill requires U.S. agencies to report on foreign actors fueling Sudan's civil war and on human rights abuses, and directs a formal ceasefire and peace strategy. It also gives the President new sanctions authority and restricts most U.S. aid and international loans to Sudan's government, with humanitarian exceptions and a national security waiver.
This affects the State Department, Treasury, and U.S. intelligence agencies, plus foreign individuals, militias, and businesses supporting the conflict. It may also affect U.S. companies trading in Sudanese gold or gum arabic and humanitarian aid groups working in the region.
The measure could increase diplomatic and financial pressure on parties to Sudan's war and add compliance risks for businesses linked to Sudanese trade, without authorizing any U.S. military involvement.
