AI Summary

This bill amends the sentencing guidelines for crimes involving the delivery or manufacture of heroin, fentanyl, carfentanil, and certain other opiates. Specifically, it creates new sentencing guidelines for these offenses, with the highest penalties (life imprisonment) for the delivery or manufacture of 1,000 or more grams of these substances. The bill also makes some other changes to the existing controlled substances laws, such as reducing the maximum sentence for delivery or manufacture of 50 to 450 grams of certain other controlled substances. The bill is tied to another bill, House Bill 5137, and will only take effect if that bill is also enacted into law.
