CONGRESS FOR VOTERS

House Roll Call 48

119th Congress · Session 2 · January 22, 2026

The vote on whether to adopt the resolution

A resolution is one chamber speaking for itself — setting its own rules, taking a position, honouring someone — and it never goes to the President. Agreeing to it is the whole decision.

What was being voted on

119-HCONRES-68 — To direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from Venezuela that have not been authorized by Congress.

This concurrent resolution directs the removal of United States Armed Forces from Venezuela. It applies to forces that have not been explicitly authorized by Congress. The directive instructs the President to remove these forces unless there is a formal declaration of war. Additionally, removal is required unless there is specific statutory authorization for the use of military force.
