<DELETED>SEC. 2. SENSE OF CONGRESS.</DELETED>

<DELETED>    It is the sense of Congress that--</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (1) the proliferation of fentanyl is causing an 
        unprecedented surge in overdose deaths in the United States, 
        fracturing families and communities, and necessitating a 
        comprehensive policy response to combat its lethal flow and to 
        mitigate the drug's devastating consequences;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (2) the trafficking of fentanyl into the United 
        States is a national security threat that has killed hundreds 
        of thousands of United States citizens;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (3) transnational criminal organizations, 
        including cartels primarily based in Mexico, are the main 
        purveyors of fentanyl into the United States and must be held 
        accountable;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (4) precursor chemicals sourced from the People's 
        Republic of China are--</DELETED>
                <DELETED>    (A) shipped from the People's Republic of 
                China by legitimate and illegitimate means;</DELETED>
                <DELETED>    (B) transformed through various synthetic 
                processes to produce different forms of fentanyl; 
                and</DELETED>
                <DELETED>    (C) crucial to the production of illicit 
                fentanyl by transnational criminal organizations, 
                contributing to the ongoing opioid crisis;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (5) the United States Government must remain 
        vigilant to address all new forms of fentanyl precursors and 
        drugs used in combination with fentanyl, such as Xylazine, 
        which attribute to overdose deaths of people in the United 
        States;</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (6) to increase the cost of fentanyl trafficking, 
        the United States Government should work collaboratively across 
        agencies and should surge analytic capability to impose 
        sanctions and other remedies with respect to transnational 
        criminal organizations (including cartels), including foreign 
        nationals who facilitate the trade in illicit fentanyl and its 
        precursors from the People's Republic of China and such 
        organizations; and</DELETED>
        <DELETED>    (7) the Department of the Treasury should focus on 
        fentanyl trafficking and its facilitators as one of the top 
        national security priorities for the Department.</DELETED>

SEC. 2. SENSE OF CONGRESS.

    It is the sense of Congress that--
            (1) the proliferation of fentanyl is causing an 
        unprecedented surge in overdose deaths in the United States, 
        fracturing families and communities, and necessitating a 
        comprehensive policy response to combat its lethal flow and to 
        mitigate the drug's devastating consequences;
            (2) the trafficking of fentanyl into the United States is a 
        national security threat that has killed hundreds of thousands 
        of United States citizens;
            (3) transnational criminal organizations, including cartels 
        primarily based in Mexico, are the main purveyors of fentanyl 
        into the United States and must be held accountable;
            (4) precursor chemicals sourced from the People's Republic 
        of China are--
                    (A) shipped from the People's Republic of China by 
                legitimate and illegitimate means;
                    (B) transformed through various synthetic processes 
                to produce different forms of fentanyl; and
                    (C) crucial to the production of illicit fentanyl 
                by transnational criminal organizations, contributing 
                to the ongoing opioid crisis;
            (5) the United States Government must remain vigilant to 
        address all new forms of fentanyl precursors and drugs used in 
        combination with fentanyl, such as Xylazine, which attribute to 
        overdose deaths of people in the United States;
            (6) to increase the cost of fentanyl trafficking, the 
        United States Government should work collaboratively across 
        agencies and should surge analytic capability to impose 
        sanctions and other remedies with respect to transnational 
        criminal organizations (including cartels), including foreign 
        nationals who facilitate the trade in illicit fentanyl and its 
        precursors from the People's Republic of China; and
            (7) the Department of the Treasury should focus on fentanyl 
        trafficking and its facilitators as one of the top national 
        security priorities for the Department.
