Because of this tragic track record, the people of Southwestern PA urge Representative Mike Doyle to help prevent this cycle of destruction from continuing with Venezuela. For too long, many of our representatives have failed to restrain military and intelligence services driven by pursuit of resources for corporations and billionaires. Under the current administration, this threat of war for corporate greed is even more dire. We therefore urge Rep. Doyle to act to prevent international disaster and war. The people of Venezuela do not deserve the violence of a military intervention and the plundering of their national resources. We call on Representative Mike Doyle to co-sponsor H.R.1004: Prohibiting Unauthorized Military Action in Venezuela Act. This would require Congressional approval for any military intervention in Venezuela, and therefore restrain the Trump administration from creating further chaos and violence in Latin America. Representative Doyle, your constituents urge you to declare which side you are on: The Trump administration and its march towards war?  Or the Venezuelan people who deserve control of their own country and the peace-loving Americans who truly support them? https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/prevent-war-in-venezuela-support-hr1004
