A resolution expressing the sense of the Senate in support of general elections in Venezuela.

This resolution states the Senate's position that the United States should use all diplomatic tools to support internationally monitored, free and fair elections in Venezuela. Its findings state that Venezuelans should be free to elect their leaders, that a majority of Venezuelans support the democratic opposition led by Maria Corina Machado and Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia, and that the Maduro-Rodriguez government lacks international legitimacy. It also states that a democratic Venezuela free of the influence of China, Iran, and Cuba is in the U.S. national interest. As a sense-of-the-Senate resolution, it expresses a position and does not create law.
