Adopt resolution opposing U.S. military intervention in Venezuela
In Plain English
The U.S. launched military operations in Venezuela in January 2026, including airstrikes that killed over 100 people and the capture of President Maduro. The mayor argues federal money spent on overseas conflicts should fund local housing, infrastructure, and services instead. If approved, Richmond formally condemns these actions and calls for prioritizing community needs over foreign military intervention.
