ID Requirements for Burner Phone Purchases

Legislation MUST be passed requiring burner phone purchasers to provide identification and contact information. Burner phones are disposable phones, most often used to commit crimes, usually drug deals, because they are untraceable.

Why is this important?

Every 10 minutes someone in the US will die unwittingly from opioid overdose purchased from a dealer. Often opioids are laced with fentanyl to make the high more intense. The majority of the purchasers are college students. The dealers use burner phones because they are untraceable. Law enforcement has to keep up with technology.
