Denouncing Nicolás Maduro's authoritarian, despotic, and murderous regime and commending President Trump for taking decisive action long called for by Members of Congress.

HRES 987 is a symbolic House resolution denouncing Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro as an "authoritarian, despotic, and murderous regime" and commending former President Trump for ordering a January 3, 2026, operation to arrest Maduro. It references prior congressional efforts to address Maduro's alleged human rights abuses and election interference. The resolution expresses support for the operation described as targeting Maduro's "brutal narcoterrorism and crimes against humanity." As a non-binding resolution, it does not create new policy but serves as a formal statement of congressional position.
