"The scourge of illicit drug trafficking and consumption respects no borders, threatens national security, and erodes the economic and social structures of our nations."

"I want to thank Congress for acting rapidly on this legislation."

"This legislation is an important step in our continuing effort to cooperate with the Panamanian Government and the people there."
