Background
The Kingpin Act became law on
December 3, 1999. The Kingpin Act
establishes a program targeting the
activities of significant foreign narcotics
traffickers and their organizations on a
worldwide basis. It provides a statutory
framework for the President to impose
sanctions against significant foreign
narcotics traffickers and their
organizations on a worldwide basis,
with the objective of denying their
businesses and agents access to the U.S.
financial system and the benefits of
trade and transactions involving U.S.
companies and individuals.
The Kingpin Act blocks all property
and interests in property, subject to U.S.
jurisdiction, owned or controlled by
significant foreign narcotics traffickers
as identified by the President. In
addition, the Secretary of the Treasury
