Amendment to Duties Addressing the Synthetic Opioid Supply Chain in the People's Republic of China

·Donald Trump·90 FR 9277

Amends the executive order of February 1, 2025, which imposed duties addressing the synthetic opioid supply chain in the People's Republic of China.

The order states it does not alter existing legal authority of federal agencies or the Office of Management and Budget, must be implemented consistent with applicable law and available appropriations, and does not create enforceable rights against the United States.Read the full summary
