New York, NY - Today, U.S. Representative Dan Goldman (NY-10) released the following statement:
“The President’s unilateral and unauthorized military operation in Venezuela should scare every American, and his explanation this morning will undoubtedly scare every democratic ally around the world. Congress has the sole power to declare war, and Congress has not done so, nor have we been provided with any satisfactory explanation for the President’s invasion of another sovereign nation. This violation of the United States Constitution is an impeachable offense.
