Blocking an Illegal War with Venezuela

Published | Video Starts at 01:10

All right, I want to start with a resolution you introduced on Thursday. What is it specifically calling for? It is a resolution that's very simple, very, very short. It just says We should not be at war with Venezuela or conducting military operations in Venezuela without a vote of Congress. And it follows up on a resolution that Senator Schiff led against the strikes against boats in international waters. And again, it's Senator Schiff, Senator Paul, and I bas you're just asserting this most sacred constitutional responsibility. (01:10–01:18)

CLAIM

Asserts that military action in Venezuela requires Congressional approval.
