    Answer:

    Listen to: U.S. Rep. Ted Poe (R-TX)

    Poe: “Myself and Congressman Delahunt from Massachusetts are the two congressional representatives to the UN. And the times we’ve been up there we have met with numerous people about Darfur. Trying to motivate people to do anything other than talk about it. Its been a tough struggle. But we keep the heat on as much as we can. And I just met with numerous ambassadors from other countries and UN officials. The UN mission statement would be first and foremost that we help the Darfurians.
