Cruz Introduces "El Chapo Act": Use $14B Asset Forfeiture to Pay for Border Wall
2017-04-27
[Legal Insurrection] As the GOP and President Trump kick the border wall funding can down the road, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) has proposed the Ensuring Lawful Collection of Hidden Assets to Provide Order (EL CHAPO) Act. The proposal includes using the expected $14 billion to be seized from El Chapo should he be convicted to pay for the big, beautiful border wall.

UPI, same story.

#5  Every time they find drugs in a car, truck, airplane or boat coming into this country they confiscate it. When they catch people attempting to smuggle large amounts of cash into Mexico they confiscate it. When they catch coyotes smuggling people into the country they confiscate any vehicles or cash they find. It may not pay for the entire wall but it's gotta help.
