The US Senate passed the resolution banning the use of armed forces against Venezuela.
During the vote on Thursday, 52 senators supported the resolution, and 47 opposed it.
“The motion is agreed to,” a chairman of the meeting said.
The vote on final passage, expected next week, is now seen as little more than a formality, and would mark one of Congress’s most forceful assertions of its war-making authority in decades.
The effort is seen as largely symbolic however, as the resolution faces a steep climb in the US House and almost no prospect of surviving a likely veto by Trump.
