Bill Summary
A BILL To extend the temporary scheduling order for fentanyl- related substances.
AI Summary
This bill extends the temporary scheduling order for fentanyl-related substances until July 6, 2022. Fentanyl is a highly potent synthetic opioid that has contributed to the nationwide opioid crisis. The Temporary Reauthorization and Study of the Emergency Scheduling of Fentanyl Analogues Act, passed in 2019, temporarily placed fentanyl-related substances in the most restrictive Schedule I category under the Controlled Substances Act. This bill extends that temporary scheduling order, which was previously set to expire on May 6, 2021, for an additional 14 months.
