Senate Republicans Block Venezuela Vote at Last-Minute

Senate Republicans Have Successfully Blocked a Vote on Venezuela War Powers Resolution.

A last-minute move by Senate Republicans has blocked an effort to check President Trump’s war powers in Venezuela. The vote was made possible by Senator John Barrasso, who broke the tie after several other senators voted along party lines.

The resolution aimed to limit the president’s ability to take military action in Venezuela without congressional approval. However, the Senate GOP succeeded in blocking this measure, allowing the administration to maintain its current stance on the issue.

The vote was made public through various news sources, including Axios, The New York Times, CNN, and CNBC. These outlets reported that Senator Barrasso’s vote broke the tie, effectively blocking the resolution from moving forward.

Separately, a 2-bill spending package has taken another step closer to House passage.
