The United States Senate yesterday blocked a bipartisan resolution that sought to direct the removal of US armed forces from unauthorised hostilities in or against Venezuela.
A vote was held to discharge S.J.Res. 90, the Venezuela Hostilities Removal Resolution, which was sponsored by Democrats Tim Kaine and Adam Schiff and Republican Senator Rand Paul, and introduced on October 16.
It aimed to invoke the 1973 War Powers Resolution, which asserts that US military action must be authorised by Congress.
