(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) Presidential Decision Directive 42, issued on October 21,
1995, ordered agencies of the executive branch of the United States
Government to, inter alia, increase the priority and resources
devoted to the direct and immediate threat international crime
presents to national security, work more closely with other
governments to develop a global response to this threat, and use
aggressively and creatively all legal means available to combat
international crime.

Powers Act (IEEPA) (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) to target and apply
sanctions to four international narcotics traffickers and their
organizations that operate from Colombia.
(3) IEEPA was successfully applied to international narcotics
traffickers in Colombia and based on that successful case study,
Congress believes similar authorities should be applied worldwide.

of international narcotics traffickers and their organizations that
threatens the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the
