AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend existing Massachusetts law, specifically Section 31 of Chapter 94C, by adding a new subsection (g) to Class C controlled substances. This new provision will classify a list of specific synthetic hallucinogenic substances, including their salts, isomers, and salts of isomers, as controlled substances. These substances are identified by their chemical names and common abbreviations, such as 4-MEC (4-methyl-N-ethylcathinone), pendedrone, pentylone, AB-Fubinaca, and UR-144, among others. By adding these to Class C, the bill aims to regulate their possession and distribution, similar to other substances in that classification.
