The Stop Chinese Fentanyl Act of 2025 aims to impose sanctions on Chinese producers of synthetic opioids and hold Chinese officials accountable for the spread of illicit fentanyl. The bill amends existing laws to include Chinese entities and officials in the definition of foreign opioid traffickers and mandates periodic evaluations of national emergencies related to drug trafficking. It excludes sanctions on the importation of goods.

The Quiet Ledger grades legislation on its content. A bill grade is analysis of the bill — not a grade of its sponsor or of any member who voted on it.
