.RepChipRoy reintroduced the Drug Cartel Terrorist Designation Act. 'It's long past time to designate these cartels as the terrorists they are and give US authorities the tools needed to take them down,' Roy said.
Rep. Chip Roy reintroduced a bill Friday that, if passed, would require the State Department to designate certain Mexican cartels"foreign terrorist organizations." The move comes in response to drug trafficking across the southern border.
"That's why I started pushing the Trump administration for FTO designations during my first few months in Congress, why I introduced this legislation last Congress, and why I'm introducing it again," he said. "They are bold enough to kidnap and kill foreign nationals in broad daylight; there is no limit to the inhumane methods they will use to achieve their ultimate end: profiting off of human suffering," Roy said."This most recent atrocity adds to the already massive human toll, including 72,000 dead Americans from fentanyl poisoning, more than 1,000 dead migrants along our border, and countless human and sex trafficking victims.
