AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend existing Massachusetts law, specifically Section 31 of Chapter 94C, which deals with controlled substances. The key provision is the addition of two specific compounds, "Salvia Divinorum" and "Salvinorin A," to the list of substances classified as Class C controlled substances. Controlled substances are drugs or other chemicals whose possession, manufacture, and distribution are regulated by the government due to their potential for abuse or addiction. By adding these substances to Class C, the bill aims to regulate their availability and use under state law.
