Selinux "staff_u" not allowed to access certain commands such as "semanage user" and "semanage login" when running sudo

Hello,

It's been about a year since I played with Selinux. I recently created a new selinux login and mapped it to the "staff_u" selinux user. Everything seemed to work normal until I tried running the semanage commands and it denied me access. So for instance I would run "sudo semanage user -l" and I even added the staff role and type to allow it to use sudo but it still ended up not letting me access it. I'm almost certain it never gave me this kind of problem when I ran selinux a year ago.

I ran an ausearch and it gave me a bunch of stuff, so I figured I'd ask here see if anyone know what's with it or if I should even allow these rules. Let me know what you think.
