Attorney General Kris Mayes renewed her call for the Trump administration to immediately provide additional federal resources to help Arizona combat the Mexican drug cartels and the fentanyl crisis and blasted out of state politicians for traveling to Arizona for meaningless photo-ops. “Out of state Republican attorneys general and Arizona Senate President Warren Petersen can travel to the border for meaningless photo-ops all they want—but until local and state law enforcement is given the resources they need to prosecute the criminals responsible for drug trafficking, Arizonans will continue to pay the price.” – AG Mayes
