The No Fentanyl on Social Media Act requires the Federal Trade Commission, working with federal health and drug enforcement agencies, to submit a comprehensive report to Congress within one year of the law's enactment examining how minors can access fentanyl through social media platforms. The report must document how prevalent fentanyl access is for young people, how drug sellers use social media to distribute the drug, what design features of platforms enable this access, and what health and safety risks minors face as a result. The bill also asks the FTC to evaluate what measures social media companies currently have in place to prevent this activity, what law enforcement is doing to address the problem, and to recommend legislative solutions Congress could pursue. The FTC will consult with parents, tech companies, law enforcement, medical professionals, and other experts while developing the report, though it may redact sensitive law enforcement information before publishing its findings publicly.
