A bill for an act relating to drug paraphernalia.

This bill amends Iowa's drug paraphernalia law to explicitly exempt two items: (1) hypodermic needles/syringes manufactured or used for lawful purposes (confirming an existing exemption), and (2) equipment used to test for fentanyl, fentanyl analogs, or drug adulterants in controlled substances. It directly affects healthcare workers, law enforcement, and harm reduction programs that use fentanyl testing kits or similar tools. The key mechanism removes these testing tools from the legal definition of "drug paraphernalia," preventing criminal penalties for their lawful possession or use. This change aligns with broader efforts to support evidence-based drug safety initiatives without altering penalties for other paraphernalia.
