Bill overview
This bill, the NOVA Act of 2026, aims to prevent the use of federal funds for any actions that would assert U.S. control or ownership over Venezuela. It specifically prohibits the deployment of U.S. armed forces and supports a ban on federal funding for any attempts to occupy or administer the country. However, the bill includes exceptions for acquiring properties in Venezuela for diplomatic purposes and for property already owned by the U.S. prior to 2026, while excluding emergency humanitarian aid.
