A resolution expressing the sense of the Senate in support of Operation Absolute Resolve.
This resolution expresses the Senate's support for Operation Absolute Resolve, a military operation conducted on January 3, 2026, that successfully captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores. It commends the U.S. military and law enforcement for executing the operation, which targeted Maduro’s regime and its alleged ties to drug trafficking and terrorism. The resolution does not create new policy but formally endorses the action taken to address Maduro’s leadership, citing his regime’s history of election fraud, drug trafficking, and collaboration with terrorist groups. As a commemorative resolution, it focuses on endorsing the operation’s outcome rather than proposing legislative changes.
