Resolves YES if Trump issues any letters of marque against any drug cartels, and NO if he has not done so before market close (i.e. December 25th, 2025).
For a YES resolution, anything that captures the spirit of what is being described in this Twitter thread by GOP senator Mike Lee would be sufficient.
For context, Wikipedia lists some examples where this has been considered for 21st century America. E.g. House bill H.R.6869 would have authorized the president to issue letters of marque & reprisal to seize the assets of Russian oligarchs.
