Following her announcement to immediately begin drafting legislation officially recognizing the rightful Gulf of America, Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene released the following statement accompanying the text of her bill:
“Mexican cartels currently use the Gulf of Mexico to traffic humans, drugs, weapons, and God knows what else while the Mexican government allows them to do it.
The American people are footing the bill to protect and secure the maritime waterways for commerce to be conducted. Our U.S. armed forces protect the area from any military threats from foreign countries.
It’s our gulf. The rightful name is the Gulf of America and it’s what the entire world should refer to it as.
As soon as President Trump made his announcement, I directed my staff to get the bill drafted.
We already have the bill written with legislative council and ready to file first thing Thursday morning.
Congress has to take the Trump Agenda mandate seriously and that means acting fast to enact it.”
