The U.S. House of Representatives approved legislation tying anti-drug assistance for Mexico to human rights safeguards.
The House voted 311-106 today in favor of legislation requiring the Mexican government to certify that law enforcement authorities fighting drug cartels aren’t involved in corruption or human-rights abuses.
The final aid language also will have to be approved by the Senate, where the certification requirement will probably be changed to “guidelines,” said Senator Christopher Dodd.”*
