Designate Mexican drug cartels as terrorists

Hunt says he is fighting alongside President Trump to have Mexican drug cartels labeled as terrorists as part of his effort to secure the southern border. In the same border-security statement, he also supports deploying the military to the border and Tom Homan’s efforts to deport immigrants he calls Biden’s illegal immigrants.

Context: The statement does not identify which cartels, who would make the designation, or the process for doing so.

In their own words

label Mexican Drug Cartels as Terrorists
