BLUMENTHAL STATEMENT ON VENEZUELA

[WASHINGTON, DC] - U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) released the following statement:

"If we're starting another endless war, with no clear national security strategy or need, count me out. Maduro is a cruel criminal dictator, but President Trump has never sought approval from Congress for war as the Constitution requires - and our military deserves. We've seen several Administrations lead us into conflicts without objectives or timelines and with disastrous consequences. President Trump has also articulated no clear end game to prevent further chaos, violence, and bloodshed in Venezuela. The American people deserve-and Congress should demand-facts and clarity."
