Bill Summary

A BILL FOR AN ACT relating to crimes and offenses; to amend sections 28-405, 28-416, 28-1354, and 28-1701, Revised Statutes Supplement, 2025; to designate bromazolam as a controlled substance; to correct the spelling of certain substances; to provide a penalty enhancement for certain offenses involving fentanyl; to harmonize provisions; and to repeal the original sections.

AI Summary

This bill amends Nebraska law to designate bromazolam as a controlled substance, placing it within Schedule I of the Uniform Controlled Substances Act, which lists drugs with a high potential for abuse and no currently accepted medical use. It also corrects spelling errors for certain controlled substances and enhances penalties for offenses involving fentanyl, a potent synthetic opioid. Specifically, it adds fentanyl and its related substances to Schedule II of the Uniform Controlled Substances Act and introduces new penalty classifications for possessing or distributing fentanyl, ranging from Class IB to Class ID felonies depending on the quantity. The bill also makes conforming changes to related statutes concerning controlled substance offenses, racketeering activity, and protections against arrest for drug offenses when reporting sexual assaults.
