Louisiana joins coalition in support of Trump’s actions against alleged drug boats

BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — Louisiana has joined a coalition with other states in support of President Donald Trump’s actions against alleged cartel drug boats.

Attorneys general praised Secretary of War Pete Hegseth in an Oct. 16 letter for action taken “to protect against violent cartels that are flooding our country with deadly and illegal drugs.” They stated that law enforcement agencies have been impacted negatively by illegal drugs, since agencies are forced to increase their workload.

The letter also cites public health impacts, saying that illegal drugs are causing a “costly strain” to health care systems.

“While cartels continue to bring deadly poison into our country that decimates Louisiana families, President Donald Trump is taking decisive action to defend our people. He is acting within his Constitutional authority as Commander in Chief, and I fully support his and Secretary of War Hegseth’s continued efforts to protect our country and State,” said Attorney General Liz Murrill.
