How much will they know about the conflict?

This depends on your district and member of Congress. If your Senator or Representative sits on one of the Foreign Relation committees, they will probably have a good idea of what’s going on. Also, if people in your district took part Invisible Children’s Global Night Commute or Displace Me, or any of the GuluWalks, then your member of Congress also should know something about the conflict.
