As a member of the senate foreign relations committee, he can do this anytime he sees fit.

Well, no, not really. He needs authorization from at least the Chairman of that committee. Also, there is nothing in Article I that gives Congress the authority to send its members around the world on "fact-finding" or other missions.

A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air.
"Why?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes toward the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.
"I'm a panda," he says at the door. "Look it up."
The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.
"Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."
