Joint Task Force to Counter Illicit Synthetic Narcotics Act of 2025

This bill establishes the Joint Task Force to Counter Illicit Synthetic Narcotics (JTF-ISN), a federal coordination body led by a presidentially appointed director. It brings together agencies including the DEA, FBI, Treasury, Homeland Security, and others to share intelligence and coordinate operations targeting synthetic narcotics trafficking networks, with specific focus on Chinese involvement in the crisis. The task force must submit regular reports to Congress on its activities, funding needs, and progress in disrupting trafficking, while maintaining existing agency authorities. It explicitly prohibits targeting personal drug use or low-level dealing unrelated to major trafficking networks.
