Caribbean Border Counternarcotics Strategy Act

The Caribbean Border Counternarcotics Strategy Act would require the federal government to develop and maintain a specific plan to stop illegal drug trafficking through the Caribbean and into the United States. This strategy would focus on reducing drug-related violent crime and smuggling in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands while expanding federal efforts to dismantle the financial networks used by drug cartels. For citizens, the bill aims to improve public safety and national security by ensuring that U.S. territories receive dedicated federal resources and strategic planning to combat the flow of illicit drugs into American communities.
