"Castro Urges House to Reject GOP's Calls for Military Action in Mexico"

Texas congressman Joaquin Castro is introducing a resolution in the House of Representatives to condemn calls for military action against drug cartels in Mexico without the approval of both the Mexican government and the US Congress. Castro's resolution aims to counter the increasing popularity of such proposals among Republicans, including frontrunner Donald Trump, who has vowed to send special forces into Mexico. The Biden administration has rejected the use of military force, preferring to treat the drug trade as a law enforcement issue. Castro's resolution emphasizes the importance of respecting Mexico's sovereignty and avoiding dangerous calls for war at the southern border.
