End Gas Station Heroin Act schedules synthetic opioids as Schedule I controlled substances and expands enforcement against their distribution.
The End Gas Station Heroin Act amends the Controlled Substances Act to classify synthetic opioids, specifically 7-hydroxymitragynine and mitragynine pseudoindoxyl, as Schedule I controlled substances when synthesized above a certain threshold. It prohibits the manufacture, distribution, and possession with intent to distribute these substances. The bill exempts simple possession and personal use from enforcement actions. It also limits enforcement to commercial distribution and excludes substances used for legitimate scientific, medical, forensic, analytical, or law-enforcement purposes.
