This bill would require the CIA to give Congress a detailed report on the two biggest Mexican drug cartels, the Sinaloa Cartel and the Jalisco Cartel.
The report must explain how these groups get chemicals, make fentanyl, and smuggle drugs across the border into the United States.
Intelligence officials would have to identify cartel leaders, their business partners, and how much money they make from different types of drugs.
The CIA would also look into how cartels are changing their products to attract more American users and how they try to trick or avoid law enforcement.
If passed, the CIA Director would have 90 days to finish this study and share it with several committees in Congress.
