众议院否决最新战争权力决议,阻止特朗普向委内瑞拉派兵

华盛顿 — 周四,众议院否决了最新的战争权力决议,以回应特朗普总统近期在委内瑞拉采取的军事行动。

民主党人继续猛烈抨击这一问题,并多次试图阻止在这个南美国家采取进一步军事行动,但这些努力缺乏足够的共和党支持。

两名共和党人与所有民主党人一起支持这项法案,但该法案以215票对215票的微弱差距未能通过。

共和党人不得不将2分钟的投票时间延长了20多分钟,直到德克萨斯州共和党众议员韦斯利·亨特(Wesley Hunt)赶到投出打破平局的关键一票,才使该法案失败。投票延迟关闭引发了民主党人的强烈抗议。

“关闭投票!”当投票在没有亨特的投票情况下即将通过时,纽约州民主党众议员帕特·瑞安(Pat Ryan)大喊,”这太严重了!”

此次投票发生在白宫上周失去共和党对参议院一项类似法案支持之后,该法案也以微弱差距未能推进。两名后来转而投票反对该决议的共和党参议员表示,国务卿马尔科·卢比奥(Marco Rubio)向他们保证,如果政府计划向委内瑞拉派遣美军,总统将寻求国会授权。

由马萨诸塞州民主党众议员吉姆·麦戈文(Jim McGovern)提出的众议院决议”要求总统将美国武装部队从委内瑞拉撤出,除非得到宣战声明或具体军事行动法定授权的明确批准。”

在本月美国抓捕前委内瑞拉总统尼古拉斯·马杜罗(Nicolás Maduro)的行动之前,12月两次限制特朗普对委内瑞拉及该地区涉嫌走私毒品船只采取军事行动的尝试均以失败告终。

上月的第一项法案——更广泛地关注从”与西半球任何总统指定的恐怖组织发生的敌对行动”中撤出美国武装部队——得到了两名共和党人的支持,而两名民主党人投了反对票。第二项决议则聚焦于”与委内瑞拉内部或针对委内瑞拉的敌对行动”。三名共和党人投了赞成票,一名民主党人反对。

麦戈文的最新决议结果类似。肯塔基州共和党众议员托马斯·梅西(Thomas Massie)和内布拉斯加州众议员唐·培根(Don Bacon)都支持该决议,两人也支持了之前的失败尝试。

培根指出,特朗普本周早些时候分享了一张假照片,显示总统、副总统和国务卿在格陵兰岛插美国国旗,照片中还有一个标志称格陵兰岛自2026年起成为美国领土。

“当你问我为什么本周晚些时候在战争权力决议上投了这样的票时,这就是原因之一,”培根写道。

当参议院遏制未来在委内瑞拉军事行动的努力刚刚出现短暂势头时,梅西表示,他希望众议院有更多共和党人会改变立场。几天前,美国突袭抓捕了马杜罗,这让国会措手不及。特朗普随后宣称美国正在管理该国,这令一些之前捍卫总统对数十艘涉嫌走私非法毒品船只采取打击行动权力的共和党人感到担忧。

随着注意力转向特朗普对格陵兰岛的”征服”运动,共和党人对此次突袭行动的批评大多已销声匿迹。

民主党人表示,他们计划继续就该问题进行投票,特别是在特朗普及其政府成员威胁要对包括格陵兰岛、伊朗、哥伦比亚、墨西哥和古巴在内的其他国家进行军事干预之后。

“我们将坚持不懈地推进这个问题,并向我们的同事施压,”新罕布什尔州民主党众议员玛吉·古德兰(Maggie Goodlander)周四表示。

House votes down latest war powers resolution to block Trump from putting troops in Venezuela

Washington — The House defeated the latest war powers resolution on Thursday in response to President Trump’s recent military operation in Venezuela.

Democrats continue to hammer the issue and have repeatedly tried to block further military action in the South American country, but the efforts have lacked enough GOP support.

Two Republicans joined all Democrats in supporting the measure, which narrowly failed in a 215 to 215 vote.

Republicans had to hold the 2-minute vote open for more than 20 minutes until Republican Rep. Wesley Hunt of Texas arrived to cast the tie-breaking vote, which defeated the measure. The delay in closing the vote caused an outcry from Democrats.

“Close the vote!” Democratic Rep. Pat Ryan of New York yelled as it was on the brink of passage without Hunt’s vote. “This is serious s***!”

The vote comes a week after the White House peeled off GOP support for a similar measure in the Senate that also narrowly failed to advance. Two Senate Republicans who flipped their votes to help sink the resolution said Secretary of State Marco Rubio gave them assurances that the president would seek congressional authorization if the administration plans to put U.S. troops in Venezuela.

The House resolution, introduced by Democratic Rep. Jim McGovern of Massachusetts, “directs the President to remove United States Armed Forces from Venezuela, unless explicitly authorized by a declaration of war or specific statutory authorization for use of military force.”

Two prior attempts to limit Mr. Trump’s authority to strike Venezuela and suspected drug-smuggling boats in the region fell short in December, before this month’s U.S. operation to capture former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.

The first measure from last month — with the broader focus of removing U.S. armed forces from “hostilities with any presidentially designated terrorist organization in the Western Hemisphere” — had the support of two Republicans, while two Democrats voted against it. The second resolution focused on “hostilities within or against Venezuela.” Three Republicans voted in favor and one Democrat opposed it.

McGovern’s latest resolution had a similar outcome. Republican Reps. Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Rep. Don Bacon of Nebraska both backed it. The two also supported the previous unsuccessful efforts.

Bacon pointed to a fake image shared by Mr. Trump earlier this week, showing the president, vice president and secretary of state planting an American flag on Greenland. The image included a sign that claimed Greenland as a U.S. territory as of 2026.

“When you ask me why I voted the way I did on the War Powers Resolution later this week… here’s one reason,” Bacon wrote.

When the Senate’s efforts to rein in future military action in Venezuela had short-lived momentum, Massie said he was hopeful that more Republicans in the House would change their stance. Days earlier, the U.S. had captured Maduro in an operation that came as a surprise to Congress. Mr. Trump then asserted the U.S. was running the country, worrying some Republicans who had previously defended the president’s authority to carry out strikes on dozens of boats allegedly smuggling illicit drugs.

Any GOP criticism of the strikes has mostly quieted as attention has shifted to Mr. Trump’s crusade to acquire Greenland.

Democrats have indicated they plan to keep forcing votes on the issue, especially after Mr. Trump and members of his administration have threatened military intervention against other countries, including Greenland, Iran, Colombia, Mexico and Cuba.

“We will be relentless in pressing this issue and pressing our colleagues,” Rep. Maggie Goodlander, a New Hampshire Democrat, said Thursday.
