Mark Dayton on Drugs

Democratic Jr Senator (MN)


Greatest threat to national security is flood of drugs

Dayton suggested the U.S. should redirect military spending to more sharply focus on the United States. “I think we need a much stronger patrolling of our border by our armed forces,” he said. “The greatest threat to our national security today is the flood of drugs coming into our country.”
