During the administration of President Donald Trump, $100 million in rewards was offered for various leaders of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), with visa restrictions also imposed on family and business associates. U.S. officials stated these rewards, alongside newly unsealed charges against five other high-ranking leaders, aim to cripple the organization’s leadership. Wednesday's move comes a few weeks after the United States imposed sanctions against 50 people and companies linked with the cartel, including González. The cartel is considered the largest in Mexico, with a presence in 21 of its 32 states. Its operations have extended to several countries, including the United States.
