Ted Cruz: Make El Chapo Guzman Pay for the Wall

Ted Cruz has a plan to provide funding for the Wall. Make a Mexican Drug lord pay for it.

Cruz has reintroduced the Ensuring Lawful Collection of Hidden Assets to Provide Order Act, or EL CHAPO Act, to Congress.

The bill would designate any money and assets seized from notorious gangster Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán and allocate them for the construction of the border wall. El Chapo was extradited to the U.S. in 2017 to face charges related to running one of the most notorious drug cartels in the world.
