On National Fentanyl Awareness Day, DHS Thanks Customs and Border Protection for Stopping More Than 12,000 Pounds of Fentanyl from Flowing into American Communities

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has seized over 12,000 pounds of fentanyl, preventing the drug from entering American communities. This enforcement action was highlighted by the Department of Homeland Security on National Fentanyl Awareness Day. The seizure demonstrates CBP's ongoing efforts to intercept illicit drugs at ports of entry and borders. While this is a significant law enforcement achievement, it does not directly change immigration policies or procedures for travelers or visa applicants.
