NARCO Act of 2025
This bill reorganizes the State Department's International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs office by requiring the Assistant Secretary to report to the Under Secretary for International Security Affairs. It mandates new responsibilities including coordinating with agencies like the FBI and DEA to combat international drug trafficking, setting a 10% cap on funding for foreign justice system programs, and requiring 20% of the bureau's annual budget to fund rewards programs targeting transnational criminal organizations. The bill directly affects how the State Department manages foreign anti-narcotics programs and allocates resources to partner countries and law enforcement agencies. It refines existing coordination mechanisms without creating new agencies or programs.
