U.S. politicians and officials are publicly condemning the People's Republic of China and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for their alleged involvement in the fentanyl crisis affecting the United States. Former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr described China and the CCP as 'prime movers' in the production and export of fentanyl and its precursors, characterizing their actions as a form of chemical warfare. Representatives, including Rep. Carlos, have called for China to be designated as a State Sponsor of Terrorism, citing fentanyl as a 'new deadly Weapon of Mass Destruction' and highlighting the fentanyl poisoning killing America's young people. The issue was emphasized in speeches by Representatives Gallagher and Sherrill, advocating for justice for American families impacted by fentanyl poisoning.
