Rep. Kiley Applauds Removal of Venezuela’s Maduro

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Kevin Kiley (R-CA) issued the following statement in response to the United States removing President Nicolás Maduro from Venezuela:

“The United States, Venezuela, and the entire Western Hemisphere and international order are immeasurably better off with Nicolás Maduro removed from power. Today marks the end of Maduro’s illegitimate rule and narco terrorist reign, and the beginning of a legal process for bringing him to justice. It is also a chance at a new beginning for the people of Venezuela – one where dictatorship, socialism, and poverty are replaced by democracy, freedom, and prosperity. The role of the United States in helping usher in that future must integrally involve Congress moving forward. Thank you to our incredible service members who carried out this operation with unmatched skill and courage.”
