Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, is calling on Congress to put more support behind joint efforts between the U.S. and Mexico to combat Mexican drug cartels<\/a> in the wake of the death of “El Mencho,” the leader of the “most violent and deranged cartel.”<\/p>\n

“This is the beginning of the war against the most violent and deranged cartel in Mexico: El Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generaci\u00f3n or OJNG,” Crenshaw said in a post to X<\/a> on Monday morning.<\/p>\n

Crenshaw, a former Navy SEAL, believes the strike on El Mencho<\/a> represents a needed expansion of U.S. efforts to combat cartels and a window of opportunity for increased coordination between U.S.-Mexican forces.<\/p>\n

“Over the past year, most of the attention has been on the Sinaloa Cartel. This is a much-needed refocusing on CJNG. Both are major traffickers of fentanyl, but CJNG is more like ISIS than the mafia,” Crenshaw said.<\/p>\n

Crenshaw believes Congress has a role to play in combating that threat.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019ve authored a dozen pieces of legislation<\/a> to support our military, intelligence and law enforcement efforts in Mexico. It\u2019s time for Committees to take them up.”<\/p>\n

Among them, Crenshaw introduced a bill in 2023 alongside 24 other cosponsors that would have authorized the U.S. military to “combat, attack, resist, target [and] eliminate” narcotraffickers.<\/p>\n

If implemented, the bill would allow President Donald Trump<\/a> to use the American military against foreign nations, organizations or persons that the president determines are trafficking fentanyl into the U.S.<\/p>\n

More recently, Crenshaw has spearheaded the North America Security Initiative \u2014 an effort to shore up U.S. support of Mexican special forces resources. Crenshaw has called on the U.S. to put more resources behind Mexico\u2019s special forces<\/a> in the same way the U.S. has diverted parts of its arsenal to support Ukraine\u2019s war with Russia.<\/p>\n

He has urged the U.S. to provide Mexico with equipment, <\/a>weapons, and intelligence \u2014 an act Crenshaw believes will strengthen its relationship with Mexico.<\/p>\n

“Unilateral action will only serve to alienate existing partnerships. Our near-term goal is the disruption of fentanyl networks<\/a> that are killing Americans on a daily basis,” an information packet provided by Crenshaw\u2019s office said about the initiative.<\/p>\n

A person familiar with Crenshaw\u2019s thinking said he\u2019s been coordinating with U.S. Speaker Mike Johnson,<\/a> R-La., on bringing similar cartel-focused pieces of legislation up for consideration in the near future.<\/p>\n

“We finally have a solid partner in the Mexican Government to work with. We are finally focusing huge intelligence collection efforts on the cartels (due in large part to my amendment to FISA two years ago authorizing collection on the cartels),” Crenshaw said. “We are finally taking them on. It won\u2019t be over soon. But it\u2019s about time we started.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
