SB 802 Michigan Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Controlled substances: penalties; conduct associated with qualified psychoactive substances; exempt from criminal penalties in certain circumstances. Amends secs. 7401, 7403 & 7404 of 1978 PA 368 (MCL 333.7401 et seq.).

SB 802 amends Michigan's controlled substances law to exempt non-commercial possession or distribution of specific psychoactive substances - including psilocybin (found in "magic mushrooms"), MDMA, and LSD - from criminal penalties, provided no money or valuable item is exchanged for the substance itself. Individuals may still charge reasonable fees for related services like counseling or spiritual guidance when these substances are used under supervision. This change primarily affects people in religious, therapeutic, or community settings using these substances without commercial transactions. The bill does not legalize these substances for general use but modifies penalties for specific non-commercial activities.
