Every drug interdiction helps disrupt cartels, keep illegal drugs off our streets, and protect American communities. Having tripled our deployed forces along the southern border and maritime approaches, the Coast Guard continues our counterdrug operations. Since January 21, we’ve seized over 77,000 pounds of illicit drugs. These drugs fuel and enable cartels and Transnational Criminal Organizations that produce and traffic illegal fentanyl threatening the U.S.
Watch the men and women of the Coast Guard in action as they keep the American people safe.
