Florida Representative María Elvira Salazar recently appeared on Fox Business's "Mornings with Maria" to discuss various political topics, including the budget reconciliation negotiations and President-elect Donald Trump's agenda. A key focus of her appearance was the situation in Venezuela.

Salazar, alongside colleagues such as incoming National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and Representatives Carlos A. Giménez and Mario Díaz-Balart, met with Edmundo González Urrutia, recognized by them as the legitimate president-elect of Venezuela. They expressed their support for him and opposition leader María Corina Machado.
