URGING THE US CONGRESS TO ENACT SENATE BILL 4446

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-06-16 · resolution

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners adopted a resolution urging the U.S. Congress to enact Senate Bill 4446 (the PRESS Act) or similar legislation. This act aims to prohibit the importation and manufacturing of pill press machines and chemical products intended for counterfeiting substances, particularly in response to the opioid epidemic and the proliferation of fentanyl in counterfeit pills. The resolution supports efforts to disrupt the supply chain of synthetic opioids. No specific development projects were discussed or approved; this is a legislative advocacy matter.
