Drug traffickers have vast networks, profits, and arms at their disposal. Remedying this situation will require that nations work together to stop drug trafficking. Efforts must be made to ensure that children do not become enslaved by drugs. Drug control must be the Nation's highest priority. Led by President Reagan and the first Lady, the United States is striving to create a drug-free country. The National Drug Policy Board is overseeing a national policy that aims to reduce both the supply of and demand for drugs. Congress has enacted legislation that increased funding, created a national clearinghouse, and strengthened penalties for narcotics trafficking and other drug related offenses. Congress also has strengthened forfeiture provisions and enacted measures to make laundering of drug profits more difficult. Finally, the Nation has made a strong commitment to international efforts to interdict drugs and halt drug trafficking.
