Relative to National Fentanyl Awareness Day.

This Senate Concurrent Resolution designates May 7, 2024, as National Fentanyl Awareness Day to highlight the dangers of counterfeit pills containing lethal doses of fentanyl. The measure directly affects the general public by aiming to increase awareness of the risks posed by fake prescription pills and illicit fentanyl, which have caused a significant rise in overdose deaths across the United States and California. While the resolution includes statements supporting law enforcement efforts to combat the spread of these drugs, its primary function is symbolic recognition rather than establishing new laws or funding.
