Van Drew Campaign Statement on the Apprehension of Venezuelan Narco-Terrorist Maduro

January 3, 2026 — “Every year more than 100,000 Americans lose their lives to the scourge of addiction from drugs trafficked into our country by international criminal cartels. Just about everyone in South Jersey knows someone, or the family of someone, that has been lost as a result.

The world learned last night with the arrest and capture of Venezuelan Dictator and Narco-Terrorist Kingpin Nicolas Maduro that the days of allowing drug cartels to cost our country trillions of dollars and engage in the mass murder of Americans are over!”
