Illicit synthetic substances; provide felony for the delivery of, where subsequent use of the substance results in death.

SB 2318 makes it a felony to deliver illicit synthetic substances (like fentanyl analogs) with knowledge that the recipient might die from using them, imposing mandatory 20+ year prison terms and $10,000 fines. It directly affects sellers or distributors of these dangerous drugs who profit from sales that cause death. The bill includes exceptions: people seeking medical help for overdoses cannot be prosecuted for the delivery, and it explicitly excludes drug users sharing substances with friends from prosecution. The bill died in committee after referral in early 2026.
