Bill overview
The HALT Fentanyl Act permanently classifies fentanyl-related substances as Schedule I drugs under the Controlled Substances Act, mirroring the classification of fentanyl analogues. It increases penalties for offenses involving these substances to the same level as those involving fentanyl itself (a minimum 10-year prison sentence for quantities over 100 grams). The bill also streamlines research registration processes, allowing for single registrations for related research sites and reducing the need for new inspections in certain circumstances. Furthermore, it addresses issues related to manufacturing small quantities of controlled substances during research and ensures transparency in the application of special research procedures.
