Summary

Halt All Lethal Trafficking of Fentanyl Act or the HALT Fentanyl ActThis bill permanently places fentanyl-related substances as a class into schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act. A schedule I controlled substance is a drug, substance, or chemical that has a high potential for abuse; has no currently accepted medical value; and is subject to regulatory controls and administrative, civil, and criminal penalties under the Controlled Substances Act.Under the bill, offenses involving fentanyl-related substances are triggered by the same quantity thresholds and subject to the same penalties as offenses involving fentanyl analogues (e.g., offenses involving 100 grams or more trigger a 10-year mandatory minimum prison term).Additionally, the bill establishes a new, alternative registration process for certain schedule I research.The bill also makes several other changes to registration requirements for conducting research with controlled substances, includingpermitting a single registration for related research sites in certain circumstances,waiving the requirement for a new inspection in certain situations, andallowing a registered researcher to perform certain manufacturing activities with small quantities of a substance without obtaining a manufacturing registration.Finally, the bill expresses the sense that Congress agrees with the interpretation of Controlled Substances Act in United States v. McCray, a 2018 case decided by the U.S. District Court for the Western District of New York. In that case, the court held that butyryl fentanyl, a controlled substance, can be considered an analogue of fentanyl even though, under the Controlled Substances Act, the term controlled substance analogue specifically excludes a controlled substance.

The bill adds new scheduling criteria for fentanyl-related substances and modifies the registration process for research involving controlled substances.

  • 21 U.S.C. 812(c)

    (e)(1) Unless specifically exempted or unless listed in another schedule, any material, compound, mixture, or preparation which contains any quantity of a fentanyl-related substance, or which contains the salts, isomers, and salts of isomers of a fentanyl-related substance whenever the existence of such salts, isomers, and salts of isomers is possible within the specific chemical designation.

    This new provision classifies fentanyl-related substances as a controlled substance under schedule I.

  • 21 U.S.C. 812(c)

    (2) For purposes of paragraph (1), except as provided in paragraph (3), the term `fentanyl-related substance' means any substance that is structurally related to fentanyl by 1 or more of the following modifications: (A) By replacement of the phenyl portion of the phenethyl group by any monocycle, whether or not further substituted in or on the monocycle. (B) By substitution in or on the phenethyl group with alkyl, alkenyl, alkoxyl, hydroxyl, halo, haloalkyl, amino, or nitro groups. (C) By substitution in or on the piperidine ring with alkyl, alkenyl, alkoxyl, ester, ether, hydroxyl, halo, haloalkyl, amino, or nitro groups. (D) By replacement of the aniline ring with any aromatic monocycle whether or not further substituted in or on the aromatic monocycle. (E) By replacement of the N-propionyl group with another acyl group.

    This provides a detailed definition of what constitutes a fentanyl-related substance.

  • 21 U.S.C. 812(c)

    (3) A substance that satisfies the definition of the term `fentanyl-related substance' in paragraph (2) shall nonetheless not be treated as a fentanyl-related substance subject to this schedule if the substance-- (A) is controlled by action of the Attorney General under section 201; or (B) is otherwise expressly listed in a schedule other than this schedule.

    This establishes exemptions for certain substances that would otherwise be classified as fentanyl-related.

  • 21 U.S.C. 823

    (n) Special Provisions for Practitioners Conducting Certain Research With Schedule I Controlled Substances.-- (1) In general.--Notwithstanding subsection (g), a practitioner may conduct research described in paragraph (2) of this subsection with 1 or more schedule I substances in accordance with subparagraph (A) or (B) of paragraph (3) of this subsection.

    This allows practitioners to conduct certain research with schedule I substances under expedited procedures.

  • 21 U.S.C. 822(c)

    (4) An agent or employee of a research institution that is conducting research with a controlled substance if-- (A) the agent or employee is acting within the scope of the professional practice of the agent or employee; (B) another agent or employee of the institution is registered to conduct research with a controlled substance in the same schedule; (C) the researcher who is so registered-- (i) informs the Attorney General of the name, position title, and employing institution of the agent or employee who is not separately registered; (ii) authorizes that agent or employee to perform research under the registration of the registered researcher; and (iii) affirms that any act taken by that agent or employee involving a controlled substance shall be attributable to the registered researcher, as if the researcher had directly committed the act, for purposes of any proceeding under section 304(a) to suspend or revoke the registration of the registered researcher; and (D) the Attorney General does not, within 30 days of receiving the information, authorization, and affirmation described in subparagraph (C), refuse, for a reason listed in section 304(a), to allow the agent or employee to possess the substance without a separate registration.

    This provision allows agents or employees at research institutions to work with controlled substances without needing separate registrations, enhancing research capabilities.

Frequently asked questions

What does HR 27 do?
Halt All Lethal Trafficking of Fentanyl Act or the HALT Fentanyl ActThis bill permanently places fentanyl-related substances as a class into schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act. A schedule I controlled substance is a drug, substance, or chemical that has a high potential for abuse; has no currently accepted medical value; and is subject to regulatory controls and administrative, civil, and criminal penalties under the Controlled Substances Act.Under the bill, offenses involving fentanyl-related substances are triggered by the same quantity thresholds and subject to the same penalties as offenses involving fentanyl analogues (e.g., offenses involving 100 grams or more trigger a 10-year mandatory minimum prison term).Additionally, the bill establishes a new, alternative registration process for certain schedule I research.The bill also makes several other changes to registration requirements for conducting research with controlled substances, includingpermitting a single registration for related research sites in certain circumstances,waiving the requirement for a new inspection in certain situations, andallowing a registered researcher to perform certain manufacturing activities with small quantities of a substance without obtaining a manufacturing registration.Finally, the bill expresses the sense that Congress agrees with the interpretation of Controlled Substances Act in United States v. McCray, a 2018 case decided by the U.S. District Court for the Western District of New York. In that case, the court held that butyryl fentanyl, a controlled substance, can be considered an analogue of fentanyl even though, under the Controlled Substances Act, the term controlled substance analogue specifically excludes a controlled substance.
