CBW Fentanyl Act

Bill 119 s 63, also known as the Chemical and Biological Weapons Control and Warfare Elimination Act Amendment, aims to make changes to the existing Chemical and Biological Weapons Control and Warfare Elimination Act of 1991. The main purpose of this bill is to impose sanctions on foreign countries that engage in acts related to chemical or biological programs that cause harm or injury to other foreign countries.

The bill seeks to strengthen the existing law by expanding the scope of sanctions that can be imposed on countries that violate the prohibition on the use of chemical and biological weapons. These sanctions may include economic measures, diplomatic actions, and other penalties deemed appropriate by the US government.

The goal of this legislation is to deter countries from developing, producing, or using chemical or biological weapons by imposing consequences for such actions. By holding countries accountable for their actions in this area, the bill aims to promote international peace and security. In addition to imposing sanctions, the bill also includes provisions for reporting requirements and oversight mechanisms to ensure that the sanctions are implemented effectively and in accordance with the law. Overall, Bill 119 s 63 is designed to strengthen the US government's ability to respond to acts concerning chemical or biological programs that pose a threat to other countries, and to uphold the principles of non-proliferation and disarmament in the international community.
