Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This bill requires the Government Accountability Office to study how fentanyl and methamphetamine are sold illegally online and report its findings to Congress within one year. The study will examine how drug traffickers operate their businesses online, including their supply chains, payment methods, and customer acquisition strategies, with special attention to sales targeting minors under 18. The bill also directs the study to analyze federal government efforts to combat online drug sales, including coordination between agencies and with state and local governments, as well as how online platforms detect and enforce against illegal drug sales on their services. Additionally, the study will review data on how often online companies report suspected illegal drug sales to the federal government and what happens to those referrals. No specific funding amount is mentioned in the legislation.
