TELL CONGRESS: Trump has bombed FOUR boats coming from Venezuela, claiming that he’s
blowing so-called narco-terrorists “the hell out of the water.” His
military threats against Venezuela are growing. Sens. Schiff and Kaine are
pushing for a vote THIS WEEK to end Trump’s illegal war. Sign the petition: Urge Senators to vote this week to prevent war with Venezuela.

Trump said the U.S. military struck a fourth boat coming from Venezuela as
part of his campaign to “blow the cartel terrorists the hell out of the
water.”^1 Then, he again ratcheted up threats to engage in ground warfare
in Venezuela and Mexico.^2
The UN has made very clear that Trump’s boat bombings are illegal, saying,
“International law does not allow governments to simply murder alleged
drug traffickers.”^3 Senate Democrats have pushed a War Powers Resolution
to end Trump’s lawless killings and aggression against Venezuela.
Congress can vote to check Trump’s military powers as soon as THIS WEEK.
Our lawmakers must demand an end to hostilities in the Caribbean now!

Trump from going to war with Venezuela!

Representative Ilhan Omar and Senators Adam Schiff and Tim Kaine have
introduced a War Powers Resolution to stop Trump’s illegal airstrikes and
extrajudicial killings. We must pressure Congress to uphold the law in the
face of Trump’s wanton violence.
“There was no legal justification for the Trump Administration’s military
escalation in the Caribbean,” Representative Ilhan Omar said after
introducing a War Powers Resolution in the House.^4
Sen. Schiff pointed out the stark reality that Trump’s extralegal boat
killings are putting all Americans at risk. “Other countries now may
decide to blow an American ship out of the water and claim that it was
engaged in drug trafficking,” he said.^5
Trump is deploying military force wherever he wants, no matter what the
law says. Congress must take action now to reassert its war powers and end
Trump’s reckless military campaign against Venezuela.
