Fifty-four US Senators sent a letter to US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton last year asking her to make the resolution of the Western Sahara conflict a top North African priority. The letter pointed out that the region's struggling economy plus the restless youth population were contributing to instability. The Senators supported the autonomy plan, calling it "serious and credible". While support has been there, action has been absent
Congress was busy with healthcare, the deficit, and the war on terror. However, the Western Sahara issue is no longer on the radar.
What do you feel Congress's next action on the Western Sahara issue should be?
