The political and economic crisis in Venezuela is causing deep human suffering. Medical shortages have caused deaths from normally treatable conditions to skyrocket, while food shortages have contributed to weight loss and malnutrition, particularly among the most vulnerable sectors. WOLA works to advance proposals that cut through partisan resistance in order to help alleviate the suffering of the Venezuelan people.
