The deadly opioid fentanyl continues to surge across the southern border.
Congressman Tony Gonzales has filed a bill to classify it as a Weapon of Mass Destruction.
The Texas border Republican says the feds seized nearly 13,000 pounds of fentanyl this year.
Just last week, Customs agents in South Texas seized one million dollars worth of it hidden in a tractor trailer coming in from Mexico.
Gonzales's bill would direct the Office of National Drug Control Policy to assess the administration's border efforts.
