WASHINGTON—On July 25, the House of Representatives passed a bill aimed at holding Chinese officials accountable for the spread of illicit fentanyl to the United States.
House Resolution 3203, also referred to as the Stop Chinese Fentanyl Act of 2023, would expand the definition of a “foreign fentanyl trafficker” in a 2019 sanctions law to include any Chinese entity involved in producing, selling, distributing, or financing synthetic opioids or precursors.
