Fentanyl Prevention Act: CIA Intelligence Assessment on Major Drug Cartels.

This Act requires the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to produce a detailed intelligence assessment on the Sinaloa and Jalisco Cartels. The goal is to gain a deeper understanding of their methods for producing and smuggling fentanyl into the United States, which is crucial for enhancing public safety and limiting access to deadly synthetic drugs in communities. This information will support more effective counter-narcotics efforts.
