This House resolution commends President Trump and U.S. military, intelligence, and law enforcement personnel for "Operation Absolute Resolve," an operation authorized on January 3, 2026, to apprehend Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and dismantle the "Cartel de los Soles." The resolution describes Maduro as a fugitive charged with narcoterrorism conspiracy, drug trafficking, and weapons offenses, and notes that his wife, Cilia Flores, was also extradited and faces similar charges. The resolution criticizes the Maduro regime for dismantling Venezuela's democratic institutions, carrying out extrajudicial killings, and providing safe harbor to terrorist organizations and criminal groups that have allegedly contributed to U.S. drug trafficking and overdose deaths. The House formally applauds the operation and reaffirms the Monroe Doctrine as the foundation for Western Hemisphere security, while expressing support for a democratic transition in Venezuela. This is a ceremonial resolution with no direct budgetary impact or timeline requirements.
