Anti-Drug Abuse Amendment Act  

Definición

  • The Anti-Drug Abuse Amendment Act, signed by President Ronald Reagan on November 18, 1988, revised the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986 by closing real or perceived loopholes of that law. Major provisions included the creation of a new executive-level agency, the Office of National Drug Control Policy, whose director, appointed by the president, would lead a uniform national strategy to reduce drug use and availability, and would have unprecedented budgetary certification authority over other department and agency heads.
