What it does

Permanently classifies fentanyl-related substances in Schedule I and adjusts related criminal and scheduling authorities.

Why it matters

Scheduling decisions shape prosecution exposure, research barriers, and treatment pathways for years.

Progressive take

Overdose deaths are real. Permanent Schedule I classification without treatment expansion and research pathways repeats the failures of punitive-only drug policy. Demand both supply interdiction and care.
