AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would bar the federal government from spending any funds on the use of military force in or against Venezuela from the date the law is enacted through December 31, 2026. The ban would not apply if Congress declares war on Venezuela or passes a new law that specifically authorizes such force and meets the requirements of the War Powers Resolution. The ban also would not apply to uses of force allowed under section 2(c) of the War Powers Resolution, which covers national emergencies created by an attack on the United States, its territories, or its armed forces.
