In March of last year, 54 US Senators sent a letter to US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton asking her to make Western Sahara the focus of US North African policy. The letter stated that the region's economy plus the restless youth population were contributing to instability. The Senators supported the autonomy plan, calling it "serious and credible".
Now, with Congress having focused on the deficit, the recent deteriorations with Pakistan, and the war on terror, the Western Sahara issue has seemingly been ignored.
How do you feel the US Congress should proceed?
