This bill would direct the Attorney General, through the Director of the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces, to structure these task forces within 180 days to fight transnational organized crime and reduce illegal drugs in the United States using a prosecutor-led, multi-agency approach. The Departments of the Treasury, Homeland Security, Labor, and State and the U.S. Postal Service are listed as covered agencies. Within one year, the Attorney General and the covered agencies would submit a joint report on the task forces' successes to six congressional committees, and the unclassified part would be posted on agency websites. The law would expire after January 20, 2029.
