This week, Florida state Sen. Blaise Ingoglia, R-Spring Hill, filed a memorial to Congress to urge the U.S. Department of States to designate drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations perpetrating heinous activities that threaten the security of Americans.
“Today, we are urging the federal government to designate drug cartels for what they are: terrorist organizations that wreak havoc on families, business and communities in the United States,” he said.
“It is time to get serious about stopping the plague that is human and drug trafficking. In addition to fixing the perennially broken legal immigration system and stopping the influx of illegal immigrants, this is a great first step to protecting Americans,” said Ingoglia.
