The main purpose of the Cartel And Radical Terrorist Enforcement Log Act of 2025, also known as the CARTEL Act of 2025, is to enhance transparency regarding the activities of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and to provide detailed reports on foreign terrorist organizations and transnational criminal organizations. The goal is to keep the public informed about border security issues and the challenges posed by these groups. Key provisions of the act require the Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection to publish a monthly report on a publicly accessible website.
