To hail oil exports from Venezuela until their leaders commit to respect human rights and democratic principles.

During the last 15 years, Venezuela’s Leaders and so called “Chavistas” have adopted an aggressive approach towards the United States by making threats to halt all oil exports to our nation. The growing discontent over corruption, street violence, crime, food shortages, lack of basic services and an increased record of human right crimes, make everyday a tragedy in this country. Venezuelans aren’t able to begin a new chapter in history; the government is unable to commit to democratic principles, the rule of law, and respect for human rights. Now the Venezuelan regime appears to be preparing to maintain itself in power through brute force — and the oil-producing country is headed for a crisis that demands the attention of the United States.
