Summary
Denounces the actions of the State Peace and Development Council (SPDC) that seek to legitimize military rule in Burma through a flawed election process. Demands the release of Aung San Suu Kyi, detained Buddhist monks, and all other political prisoners and prisoners of conscience. Calls on the Administration to: (1) not recognize the military regime's elections as legitimate; and (2) implement the Tom Lantos Block Burmese JADE Act of 2008 by nominating the Special Representative and Policy Coordinator on Burma and by imposing the required financial sanctions. Calls on the Burmese junta to permit members of the democratic opposition and ethnic minorities to participate in the government. Urges support for an international inquiry to investigate the Burmese regime's war crimes and crimes against humanity.
