Bill overview
This bill amends Michigan law to specifically address sentencing guidelines for illicit use of xylazine, a synthetic opioid often mixed with other drugs. It aims to provide a dedicated sentencing framework for offenses involving xylazine, recognizing its increasing prevalence as a dangerous adulterant in the drug supply. The bill modifies existing criminal procedure sections to incorporate this new focus, ensuring that those involved in distributing or possessing xylazine face appropriate penalties. Importantly, the bill’s implementation is contingent on the passage of House Bill 4166.
