Designates revenue collected by the opioid excise tax for the New York state drug treatment and public education fund
This bill redirects all revenue from New York's opioid excise tax - including taxes, interest, and penalties - to the New York State Drug Treatment and Public Education Fund. It requires that 100% of collected tax (after reserving funds for potential refunds) be paid to this specific fund, as defined in state finance law. The fund supports drug treatment programs and public education initiatives related to substance abuse. This policy change ensures opioid tax revenue directly finances state-level prevention and treatment services. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
