Plain-English Summary

The proposal would create a special fund to support efforts aimed at restoring democratic governance and rebuilding institutions in Venezuela, likely through financial assistance and coordination with international partners. This would primarily affect Venezuelan citizens and exiled communities seeking to return, as well as U.S. foreign policy priorities in Latin America. The fund would need to be approved by Congress before any money could be allocated for these restoration efforts.
