Fight Against Fentanyl Act
This bill amends an existing provision of the Omnibus Crime Control Act to explicitly authorize federal grant funds to cover the purchase of fentanyl testing kits and opioid reversal agents. It directly affects state and local law enforcement and public health agencies that receive federal grants under this program. The key change allows current grant funding to be used for these specific harm reduction tools without requiring new legislation or appropriations.
