END FENTANYL Act
The END FENTANYL Act (S 206) requires the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner to review and update inspection policies at ports of entry every three years. This ensures inspection practices can address new methods used to smuggle drugs and people across the border. After each update, the Commissioner must report changes to Congress. The bill directly affects how CBP operates at U.S. border crossings.
