AI Summary
This bill, the Stop The Opioid Pill Presser and Fentanyl Act (STOPP Act), amends the Controlled Substances Act to regulate the manufacture, distribution, and sale of tableting machines, encapsulating machines, and their critical parts. Key provisions include: defining "critical parts" of these machines; requiring the registration, serialization, and reporting of transactions involving these machines and parts; establishing a National Pill Press Registry; and imposing penalties for violations, such as removing or altering serial numbers or possessing unregistered machines. The goal is to provide better oversight and control over these tools that can be used in the illicit production of opioids and other drugs.
