Divestment Legislation
On December 31, 2007 the Sudan Accountability and Divestment Act of 2007 (SADA) became law. SADA is vital legislation that protects the states’ and investment firms’ rights to divest from companies with connections to the government of Sudan. SADA also prohibits federal contracts with such companies.
