Trump signs fentanyl crackdown bill, links tariffs on China to drug crisis
Calling it "a historic step toward justice," US President Donald Trump signs the Halt Fentanyl Act into law, vowing tougher penalties for traffickers and permanently classifying all fentanyl-related substances as Schedule I narcotics. Trump says the law delivers a "righteous blow" to drug cartels and justifies a 20 percent tariff on China as a "penalty," blaming Beijing for much of the fentanyl entering the United States.
