Key Points

  • This bill requires the State Department to create a formal plan to help Venezuela move toward a democratic government. The plan must be delivered to Congress within six months of the bill becoming law.
  • A major part of the strategy involves working to free people who have been unfairly jailed in Venezuela. It also focuses on helping local groups that protect human rights and independent news reporters.
  • The plan aims to reduce the influence of foreign countries like Russia, China, Iran, and Cuba within the Venezuelan government and military.
  • The U.S. would use foreign aid to provide humanitarian help, such as food and medicine, and to support programs that teach people about fair elections and good government.
  • After the first plan is finished, the State Department would have to give Congress updates every year for two years to show how the strategy is working and if any changes are needed.
