CEPR live-blog of this AM's U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee Hearing on Venezuela

The hearing, “Deepening Political and Economic Crisis in Venezuela: Implications for U.S. Interests and the Western Hemisphere,” will be presided over by Senator Marco Rubio, one of the co-sponsors of sanctions legislation against Venezuela passed last year. The hearing will consist of two panels, with officials from the U.S. State Department and the Treasury followed by representatives of civil society.

“This is going to be a real circus,” CEPR Co-Director Mark Weisbrot said.
