Last updated on Wednesday, October 25, 2017

(WASHINGTON) - The Drug Enforcement Administration said in its annual National Drug Threat Assessment that Mexican drug cartels remain the greatest criminal drug threat to the U.S.

"The cartels are the principal wholesale drug sources for domestic gangs responsible for street-level distribution. The Sinaloa Cartel maintains the most expansive footprint in the U.S. while the Jalisco New Generation Cartel has increased its presence across the U.S.," the DEA said.
