Requires the CIA to report on drug cartels affecting U.S. communities

This bill would require the CIA to create a detailed report on the Sinaloa and Jalisco drug cartels. This report would help Congress understand how these cartels work and move drugs into the United States. Currently, no law specifically requires such a detailed assessment.

What Would Change

Today, there is no law requiring the CIA to provide Congress with a specific intelligence report on the Sinaloa and Jalisco Cartels. If this bill passes, the CIA Director would be required to deliver a detailed assessment on these cartels to Congress within 90 days of the bill becoming law.

Key Provisions

Requires the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to create a detailed report on the Sinaloa and Jalisco drug cartels.

Requires the report to describe how cartels make synthetic drugs, their suppliers, and how they target U.S. consumers, including unwitting users.
Requires the report to estimate the cartels' yearly income from selling illegal drugs.
Lets the CIA submit this intelligence report to Congress in a classified, or secret, form.
