STOP TRANQ Act

The STOP TRANQ Act requires the U.S. government to include xylazine - a veterinary sedative increasingly mixed with illicit drugs - in the annual International Narcotics Control Strategy Report. This amendment adds xylazine to the list of substances tracked alongside illicit fentanyl, improving data collection on its role in drug trafficking and public health threats. The bill focuses on standardizing international reporting to better assess global drug trends, without altering enforcement or funding. It directly affects the Department of State and the Office of National Drug Control Policy, which produce the report.
