US Support for Continuing Human Rights Investigations in Venezuela.

This law directs the U.S. government to use its influence at the UN to extend the mandate of the Fact-Finding Mission investigating crimes against humanity in Venezuela. The goal is to maintain international pressure until free elections, democracy, and the release of political prisoners, including detained Americans, are achieved. This commits the U.S. to actively supporting justice and humanitarian aid efforts for the Venezuelan people.
Key points
The U.S. must advocate for the continuation of the UN mission investigating torture, executions, and disappearances in Venezuela until democracy is restored.
U.S. authorities must push for the release of all political prisoners and wrongfully detained foreign nationals, including Americans, used as leverage by the regime.
The U.S. foreign policy toward Venezuela must be developed based on the findings and conclusions of the international investigative mission.
