Donald McEachin: “To attack drug and human smuggling, those cartels and organized crimes need a strategic, focused, consistent, law…”

McEachin and Grijalva are doing exactly what elected officials should do, by ensuring that communities closest to the problem have a seat at the table as we develop policy solutions.

We have Pueblo and Dine and Chicano communities that are still dealing with mines that have been left unremediated and contaminated groundwater that is undrinkable.

The act will also hold companies accountable by allowing those of us impacted to seek legal remedy when they discriminate against us.

I think it distracts from our shared goal of solving these problems for these communities.
