## Summary

**Condemns Nicolas Maduro and praises the U.S. operation that removed him.** This resolution would denounce Maduro's authoritarian, violent rule and commend President Trump for ordering U.S. law enforcement, military, and intelligence assets to carry out the January 3, 2026 operation that arrested and exfiltrated Maduro. It would express support for the agencies that executed the mission, say the action seeks accountability for alleged narcoterrorism and crimes against humanity, and note related congressional proposals on sanctions and energy restrictions.
