(3) the United States, in conjunction with the Government of Afghanistan and coalition partners, should undertake additional efforts to reduce illegal drug trafficking and related activities that provide financial support for terrorist organizations in Afghanistan and neighboring countries.

(b) Report required

(1) The Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of State shall jointly prepare a report that describes—

(A) the progress made toward substantially reducing poppy cultivation and heroin production capabilities in Afghanistan; and

(B) the extent to which profits from illegal drug activity in Afghanistan are used to financially support terrorist organizations and groups seeking to undermine the Government of Afghanistan.

L. 108–458, title VII, known as the 9/11 Commission Implementation Act of 2004, to reflect the probable intent of Congress.
