Senate GOPers Will Propose Labeling Drug Cartels ‘Foreign Terrorist Organizations’
(Worthy News) – Republican Sens. Roger Marshall of Kansas and Rick Scott of Florida will introduce legislation on Thursday designating four Mexican drug cartels foreign terrorist organizations.
The Drug Cartel Terrorist Designation Act, obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller, would subject the Reynosa/Los Metros faction of the Gulf Cartel’s Reynosa/Los Metros faction, the Los Zetas Cartel Del Noreste faction, the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, and the Sinaloa Cartel to sanctions under the Immigration and National Act. The designation would prohibit people in the U.S. from offering “material support or resources” to the cartels, and allows the federal government to seize their assets.
The bill also gives the Secretary of State to sanction other cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. The State Department currently lists 68 groups as foreign terrorist organizations, although none are drug cartels. [ Source: Daily Caller (Read More…) ]
