The House voted Thursday against a measure that sought to stop President Donald Trump from taking further military action in Venezuela without congressional approval, shooting down the latest attempt at reining in the president’s use of military power after the U.S. captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro in an armed operation this month.
The vote was made Thursday afternoon.
