United Against Transnational Criminal Organizations Act

This bill requires the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to establish a new Joint Task Force focused on combating transnational criminal organizations operating along U.S. land borders. The task force must prioritize disrupting smuggling and trafficking of people (especially children and families) and fentanyl/fentanyl precursors across borders, with specific performance metrics and quarterly reports to Congress. It also mandates DHS to create an integrated border intelligence cell within U.S. Customs and Border Protection to track migrant surges and trafficking routes, and to strengthen international partnerships with Canada, Mexico, and Central/South American countries to combat drug and human trafficking. The bill directly affects DHS operations, border security agencies, and international law enforcement partners by mandating new structures and coordination mechanisms.
