Yeah it looks like it is hardcoded to only work if the endpoint is in AWS Commercial with .amazonaws.com as the endpoint, it looks for that in the code. we would need it to be a variable so instead of looking for say  
[https://sqs](https://sqs).{REGION\_ENDPOINT}.amazonaws.com/{ACCOUNT\_NUMBER}/{QUEUE\_NAME}  
It should be something like  
[https://sqs](https://sqs).{REGION\_ENDPOINT}.{ENDPOINT}/{ACCOUNT\_NUMBER}/{QUEUE\_NAME}  
Allowing you to set the endpoint to whatever AWS ENV you are in so in our case [c2s.ic.gov](http://c2s.ic.gov)  
This is probably also hurting the people in Gov cloud and anything else that does not point to [amazonaws.com](http://amazonaws.com)
