McCaffrey pushes creation of Mexico border czar post
Retired General Barry McCaffrey presses for a Southwest border czar to coordinate across 23 federal agencies from Border Patrol to Coast Guard. He cites ongoing drug smuggling and urges Clinton and Congress to approve a cross jurisdictional leader based in El Paso. Supporters argue the role would consolidate operations and reduce duplication, while some agencies seek clear authority and proper coordination.
