Bill overview
This bill, the Expanding Nationwide Access to Test Strips Act, aims to protect individuals’ access to drug test strips designed to detect dangerous substances like fentanyl and xylazine in drugs. It prohibits states from restricting the use or prosecution of individuals who obtain or use these strips, recognizing their potential to save lives. The legislation responds to a growing overdose crisis driven by adulterated drugs and seeks to empower individuals with information about the contents of their drugs. Currently, access to these strips varies significantly by state, with some still treating them as illegal paraphernalia.
