What this amendment would do

Mr. Sullivan submitted amendment SA 1259 to be proposed for the bill S. 331, which aims to amend the Controlled Substances Act regarding the scheduling of fentanyl-related substances.

The purpose of the amendment is to add a limit to Section 401(b) of the Controlled Substances Act.
It aims to change the law so that no person can be prosecuted, tried, or punished for a violation where death or serious bodily injury results from the use of the substance, unless the indictment is found or the information is instituted within 10 years after the violation was committed.
