Confronting the Drug Problem: Debate Persists on Enforcement and Alternative Approaches

Report Date July 1, 1993
Report No. GGD-93-82
Subject
Summary:

The federal government has steadily increased funding for drug control, from $2.8 billion in 1986 to $12 billion in 1992. Nearly 70 percent of this money has gone to law enforcement, with about 30 percent going to drug use prevention and treatment. Although supporters of the enforcement role note that drug seizures and arrests have reduced the availability and use of illegal drugs, both directly and through deterrence, advocates of alternative strategies counter that the stress on law enforcement has hardly made a dent in the nation's continuing drug problem. This report identifies a range of alternatives that rely less heavily on enforcement.
