End Gas Station Heroin Act

This bill would add 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) and mitragynine pseudoindoxyl, including synthetic forms, to Schedule I of the federal Controlled Substances Act. Small amounts that occur naturally in kratom or finished kratom products would be exempt if they stay under set concentration limits, but manufactured or concentrated forms would not qualify. The bill would also treat certain lab-made opioids sold commercially for human use as Schedule I drugs for purposes of manufacturing, importing, and distributing them. This would apply to opioids that are stronger than morphine, are not FDA-approved, and are not already scheduled. People could not be investigated, charged, or fined under this section only for buying, possessing, or personally using these substances.
