YourVoice.Now Summary
The Senate backed an Anti-Illicit Trade Awareness Day — a statement on smuggling and customs fraud, unfunded.
The details
Nothing changes in law or in daily life. The Senate agreed on June 22, 2026 to back June 11 as Anti-Illicit Trade Awareness Day. The text treats illegal trade as two things. One is banned goods — drugs, fentanyl, fake medicine, trafficked people, knock-offs. The other is legal goods moved by cheating customs, dodging tariffs, or false labels. It cites guesses that put the world's illegal economy at $3 trillion to $5 trillion. The Senate backs treating this as a security threat, but puts up no money.
