This resolution would require the President to pull U.S. military forces out of any combat involvement in or against Venezuela, unless Congress has specifically voted to declare war or approved the use of military force there. In other words, if U.S. troops are currently fighting or engaging in hostilities in Venezuela without Congress's formal sign-off, this would order that to stop. It does carve out one exception: the U.S. military could still act if needed to defend the country from an actual or imminent attack. For everyday Americans, this is really about who gets to decide when U.S. troops go into combat — the resolution asserts that Congress, not just the President alone, must authorize military action against Venezuela.
