Bottom line

This bill extends the authorization for a federal grant program designed to combat opioid abuse for an additional five fiscal years.

What it actually does

This bill reauthorizes the Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Grant Program of the Department of Justice. It amends the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 by striking previous appropriation dates and inserting new ones, thereby extending the program's authorization for fiscal years 2026 through 2030. This action ensures continued eligibility for federal funding for states and localities to combat opioid abuse.

Section 2

Reauthorization of Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Grant Program

prominently featuredstraightforward

This section updates the authorization period for the Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Grant Program, which is part of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968. It removes the prior authorization language that covered fiscal years 2017-2018 and 2019-2023. In its place, it inserts new language to authorize the program for fiscal years 2026 through 2030. This ensures that the program can continue to receive federal appropriations for an additional five years, allowing for ongoing support to address the opioid crisis.
