Scott Statement on U.S. Military Strikes in Venezuela and Capture of President Maduro

NEWPORT NEWS, VA – Congressman Robert C. “Bobby” Scott (VA-03) issued the following statement after the United States military conducted a large-scale strike against Venezuela and captured Venezuelan ...

However, the reprehensible conduct of a foreign leader, absent a clear and immediate threat to the United States, does not give any president the authority to disregard the Constitution. My full statement:

Congressman Bobby Scott@bobbyscott.house.govJan 3(source)

I am deeply concerned by reports of U.S. military strikes in Venezuela and the capture of President Maduro. There is no question that Nicolás Maduro is a brutal and corrupt leader who has inflicted enormous harm on the Venezuelan people.

The Trump administration has failed to share any new information that supports this sudden and sweeping move to halt all offshore wind development, including a project off the coast of Virginia that is already almost complete and operational.

Trump didn’t inherit a bad economy—he created one. After weeks of delayed jobs data, the numbers confirm what working families already know: rising costs, instability, and chaos. This isn’t leadership. It’s failure by design.

A bipartisan majority in Congress supports extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits. I am here with my House Democratic colleagues demanding Speaker Johnson allow the House to vote on extending these cost-saving credits today. www.youtube.com/live/IN-38gS...

I was honored to speak at the statue unveiling of Barbara Johns to replace Robert E. Lee. At just 16 years old, her strength & belief in equality and justice helped change the nation for the better. I can't think of a better example of a Virginian to represent the Commonwealth in the U.S. Capitol.
