Bill 119 s 548, also known as the Caribbean Border Counternarcotics Strategy Act, aims to amend the Office of National Drug Control Policy Reauthorization Act of 1998. The main purpose of this bill is to require the development and implementation of a counternarcotics strategy specifically focused on the Caribbean border region.
The bill emphasizes the importance of addressing the drug trafficking and related issues that occur along the Caribbean border. By requiring a specific strategy for this region, the bill aims to enhance efforts to combat drug trafficking, reduce drug-related violence, and improve overall security in the area.
In addition to the Caribbean border counternarcotics strategy, the bill also includes provisions for other purposes related to drug control policy. These additional purposes may include funding for drug prevention and treatment programs, support for law enforcement efforts, and coordination with international partners to address drug trafficking issues.
Overall, Bill 119 s 548 seeks to strengthen the United States' efforts to combat drug trafficking and related issues in the Caribbean border region through the development and implementation of a targeted counternarcotics strategy.
