First. Federal drug law enforcement
programs:
Second. Federal programs relating to

habilitation. and research:
Third. State. local and nonprofit
agencies with drug abuse responsibil-
ities: and
Fourth. State and local law enforce-

ment. efforts.
The ?bill I Introduce today restores
the deleted provisions. As the sponsor
of S. 1583. the original Comprehensive
Drug Law Enforcement. Prevention
and Treatment Act introduced on
August 1. 1985. I am pleased to note
that two of the reforms contained in
that bill were incorporated into flit.
5484: the Justice and Customs forfeit-
ure funds have been extended beyond
fiscal year 1987 and made a permanent
part of OUT antidrug arsenal: and the
limitation on the authorized amount
of the Customs Forfeiture Fund has
been removed.
Each year. Federal drug law enforce-
ment agents seize hundreds of millions
of dollars in drug money and the pro-
ceeds of drug sales. As we make better
use of our drug forfeiture laws. this
amount is continuing to Increase dra-
matically.
The bill I am introducing today will
permit us to make all forfeited drug
assets available for a sustained nation-
al war on drugs. It. strengthens our
alIPPort for the law enforcement pur-
poses already established by law, and
provides additional support for other
drug law enforcement purposes. as
