Temporary Extension of Fentanyl Scheduling Act of 2024
This bill extends the temporary scheduling of fentanyl-related substances under existing law until December 31, 2025, instead of the original 2024 deadline. It directly affects federal enforcement actions targeting fentanyl analogues by maintaining current regulatory restrictions. The key provision amends Section 2 of the Temporary Reauthorization and Study of the Emergency Scheduling of Fentanyl Analogues Act to update the expiration date. This is a procedural extension, not a new policy change. The bill has no direct impact on individuals or businesses beyond preserving current enforcement authority.
