AI Summary

This bill, titled the "FENTANYL Results Act", prioritizes the efforts of the Department of State to combat international trafficking in "covered synthetic drugs" (including fentanyl and fentanyl analogues) and "new psychoactive substances". It requires the Secretary of State to support increased data collection, engage in greater international cooperation, provide technical assistance and equipment to foreign law enforcement agencies, and establish an exchange program for personnel to address demand reduction. The bill also amends the Foreign Assistance Act to include reporting on covered synthetic drugs and new psychoactive substances in the International Narcotics Control Strategy Report, and expands the definition of "major illicit drug producing country" and "major drug-transit country" to include those significantly involved in the manufacture, production, transshipment, or trafficking of covered synthetic drugs.
