Transparency & AccountabilityHomeland Security would have to grade its own fentanyl work — no change for you.
Transparency & Accountability
The Secretary would pick the measures for the whole department and for each unit that works on fentanyl. The bill does not say those measures have to be made public.
More about this bill
You would see no change in daily life from this bill. It does not change any law about drugs, borders, or what people can do. Instead, it would make the Department of Homeland Security keep score on its own fentanyl work. Within one year, the Secretary would have to set measures for finding, blocking, and seizing the drug. Units inside the department would also have to share what they know with each other. They would have to name anything blocking that sharing.
