Rapid Response Phonebank: No War With Venezuela
January 7 @ 12:00 pm – 2:00 pm EST
The Trump administration is dragging us into war with Venezuela.
On the night of January 2, they launched an attack that resulted in the capture of Venezuelan President Maduro.
Now Trump has declared that the US will “run” Venezuela and control oil production until a transition of power can take place. He is disregarding national sovereignty and forcing a regime-change all without authorization from Congress and without citing evidence of a legitimate threat to the United States.
And it’s all in service of his own authoritarian ambitions. If he’s not stopped, Trump will continue this power grab, escalating violence in the region and putting US service members and civilians in danger unnecessarily.
We need Congress to check this regime’s lawless violence, or there’s no telling where this will end. The Constitution states clearly that war powers belong to Congress—not the White House.
Join us this Wednesday, January 7th, at 12 p.m. Eastern to call voters in five key states and ask them to demand that their senators hold this administration accountable and follow the Constitution and the law.
