STOP MADURO Act
United States119th CongressHR-268House of Representatives
Updated: Jan 9, 2025
Summary
This bill, known as the "STOP MADURO Act," authorizes the Secretary of State to significantly increase the reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Nicolas Maduro Moros. The maximum reward amount is raised to $100,000,000 , overriding previous limitations in the State Department Basic Authorities Act of 1956. The legislation specifies that this substantial reward will be paid exclusively from the liquidation of assets currently being withheld from Nicolas Maduro Moros, officials of the Maduro regime, and their co-conspirators. These assets are held by the President or the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) under various sanctions provisions, including the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act and several Executive Orders targeting the Venezuelan government and its officials.
