Amendment to Duties Addressing the Synthetic Opioid Supply Chain in the People’s Republic of China
President Donald Trump has issued an amendment to a previous executive order aimed at addressing the synthetic opioid supply chain from the People's Republic of China. This amendment modifies the conditions under which certain goods can receive duty-free treatment.

The order ensures that the amendment does not interfere with existing legal authorities or budgetary functions.

Imposing Duties to Address the Synthetic Opioid Supply Chain in the People’s Republic of China
President Donald J. Trump has issued an executive order imposing a 10 percent tariff on all products from the People's Republic of China (PRC) to address the national emergency caused by the influx of synthetic opioids, particularly fentanyl, into the United States. This measure is a response to the PRC's failure to curb the export of precursor chemicals used in the production of these opioids, which are contributing to a severe public health crisis. The order expands the scope of a previously declared national emergency and aims to pressure the PRC into taking decisive action against the illegal drug trade. The tariffs will take effect on February 4, 2025, and could be adjusted if the PRC retaliates or if it takes adequate steps to address the crisis.

Designation Of Ansar Allah as a Foreign Terrorist Organization
President Donald Trump has issued an order initiating the process to designate Ansar Allah, also known as the Houthis, as a Foreign Terrorist Organization under U.S. law. This action is driven by the group's attacks on U.S. Navy warships, regional allies, and commercial vessels, which threaten American personnel, regional stability, and global maritime trade. The order directs the Secretary of State to consult with intelligence and treasury officials and submit a report within 30 days, followed by actions to formalize the designation. Additionally, USAID is tasked with reviewing and potentially terminating relationships with entities that have financially supported or failed to adequately criticize Ansar Allah. This order underscores the U.S. policy to work with regional partners to curb the group's capabilities and operations.
