Stop Fentanyl at the Border Act

The Stop Fentanyl at the Border Act allocates $6.3 billion in federal funding for border security operations focused on intercepting fentanyl and related drug trafficking. It directs $3.4 billion to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for hiring additional personnel (including border agents and processing coordinators), mental health support, and infrastructure upgrades. An additional $1.09 billion funds advanced scanning technology at ports of entry to detect drugs, while $285 million enhances outbound inspections for firearms and currency. The bill also allocates $511 million to ICE, DEA, and DOJ to expand fentanyl interdiction efforts and disrupt transnational criminal networks along the border. These provisions directly affect CBP, ICE, DEA, and DOJ personnel responsible for border enforcement and drug interdiction operations.
