Thee House Foreign Affairs Committee held a hearing on the political situation in Venezuela and the status of U.S. humanitarian aid efforts in the country. Witnesses included U.S. Special Envoy to Venezuela Elliott Abrams and other State Department officials. Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) pressed Ambassador Abrams over his involvement in the Iran-Contra affair and his two guilty pleas for withholding information from Congress, saying “I fail to understand why members of this committee or the American people should find any testimony you give today to be truthful.” close
