ANTI-Drugs Act
This bill establishes "Operation Stonegarden," a new grant program providing $110 million annually (2024-2028) to law enforcement agencies in border states (Canada/Mexico) or coastal areas already coordinating with U.S. Border Patrol. It reauthorizes the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas Program with $400 million yearly for drug enforcement efforts and modifies the COPS Grant Program to require a report on improving access for rural and small agencies, while authorizing $665 million annually for community policing grants. The bill directly affects border law enforcement agencies, rural and underserved communities, and federal drug control offices. Key provisions include funding for equipment/personnel, annual reporting requirements, and streamlined grant processes for smaller agencies.
