Latest Action
URGENT: Tell your Members of Congress to Support the War Powers Resolution
The US military has blown up a total of 36 speedboats between September and December 2025, leading to the death of at least 115 people under unsubstantiated allegations that these individuals were narco-terrorists. On January 3rd, 2026, the US military captured the Venezuelan president and his wife in Caracas. The escalation of the US intervention in the Caribbean threatens to destabilize the entire region.
After two failed attempts to pass War Powers Resolution, Senators Kaine, Paul, Schumer and Schiff reintroduced a Joint Resolution in the Senate on December 3rd which passed 52 to 47 on January 8th.
Shortly after this important win in the Senate, Representatives McGovern, Massie and Castro reintroduced the War Powers Resolution in the House and expect a vote later this month.
Join us in taking action by supporting this resolution to block further US hostilities within or against Venezuela without explicit authorization from Congress.
UPDATE: The Haiti Criminal Collusion Transparency Act passed in the Senate as part of the National Defense Authorization Act which the executive signed into law on December 18th, 2025.
This is the result of two years of persistent advocacy and we are grateful to all of you who have contacted your Members of Congress, urging them to support this critical piece of legislation. We must now hold the authorities accountable for the implementation of this law.
