AI Summary

This bill, the Halt All Lethal Trafficking of Fentanyl Act (HALT Fentanyl Act), would amend the Controlled Substances Act to schedule fentanyl-related substances under Schedule I, which would make them illegal. It also establishes an expedited registration process for researchers to conduct studies on Schedule I substances, and allows certain manufacturing activities to be considered coincident to research without requiring a separate manufacturing registration.
